to report this to the police, even though I am technically implicating myself?

[Imperrysmum]

My local park is locked overnight and isn’t opened until 6am. It’s a huge park but in one area part of the fence is missing so I squeeze through and go into the park to walk my dog at 4am (he is an XL bully so I like to go the park when nobody is about)

The last few mornings when I have been walking round by the pond there have been a couple of men sitting on the benches next to the pond “feeding the ducks”. I noticed they have black bin liners next to them too. I’m pretty sure I recognise these men from working in a takeaway restaurant.

I am concerned they are trying to catch ducks. I hope i’m wrong, but I just can’t see why two adult men would sit feeding the ducks at 4am?! Especially as the park is officially closed and they have bin liners next to them.

AIBU to report this to the police, even though I’ll be implicating myself too?

🤦‍♀️

OP are you still in the bush?

Are they not sleeping in the park?

Op are you alive?

Has the court decided her dog isn’t a danger to the public?

I am sure I know why Op thinks she is special. And why she thinks these men are suspicious

LOL.

Is this a reverse?

You think she's one of the two men with ducks at 4am being spied on my a woman and her unbelievably dangerous dog?

Or she's a duck?

Possible

interesting that the following thread is right next to this one on my actives

I thought this was a genuine poster but I'm not so sure now.

Anyone could take a photo of binoculars in their garden.

I'm reporting the thread.

They may be catching and feeding wild ducks to customers, which may be a health risk. People have been being caught catching swans to eat, which are protected. I would report perhaps to the RSPCA rather than the police (or at least ask advice from them) if they are catching wild fowl they are probably not using humane methods.

Could be black bags full of heroine though, dealing drugs with feeding ducks as cover.😉Be careful anyway if they are up to no good it could get nasty.

RockyRogue1001 asked "Have they killed her? "

Seems so. New additions to the menu.

Spoilsport, this thread has Balonz potential.

OP, have you done an Indian runner?

Nasty.

This thread really has brought out some of the petty and spiteful members of MN. I think it's weird too OP and yes, I'd report it.

Best response yet on this thread

Get the ducks names and addresses then you'll know who's gone !!!

MounjaroUser , she's got an XL bully !!!

Does your friend keep her hens in a public park?

🙄

The police will think you're quackers if you report that

She does need to think about wasting police time, they may give her a bill.

We need an update!!!!!! 🦆

Is this a new take on the horrible racist urban legends about Chinese takeaways stealing cats and dogs to cook?

I actually don't understand if it's anything else. Why would they sit there for ages with bin bags to steal ducks? Who do you think they're stealing the ducks from? Why is it relevant that they work in a takeaway? How many ducks could they possibly "steal", that it would be worth their time and effort to sit in a park at 4am luring them into bin bags?
