Brazil-Parrot taken into custody by police in Brazil for trying to warn drug dealers of raid

Brazil- A parrot that warned two alleged drug dealers in Brazil that police were coming was taken into custody after it almost foiled the undercover drug raid, authorities said.

When the green-and-white bird spotted officers Tuesday at its owners' Teresina home, it squawked "Mama, Police!" in Portuguese. Despite the bird's efforts to tip off the owners, a man and a woman were arrested. Drugs, including crack and marijuana, were found at the property, as well as large amounts of money.

Police say the parrot has not made a sound. Authorities believe the parrot was trained to spot police cars. It is being kept at a zoo in Teresina.
