Minneapolis-St. Paul Star Tribune
During a sexual assault on a woman, her pet bird bit the suspect, apparently drawing blood that authorities will try to use to convict him.
Police found what appeared to be blood on the bird's feathers and recovered a sample that they hope contains the attacker's DNA.
Harold K. Kaai, 39, of Little Canada, Minn., appeared last week in Ramsey County District Court on a charge of first-degree criminal sexual conduct. He was arrested after police found him leaving the woman's apartment.
Deputies got a court order to take a blood sample from Kaai for comparison with the blood found on the bird.
The victim told deputies that she was in bed when she heard someone enter her apartment about 2:30 a.m. A man entered the bedroom and jumped on top of her.
During the attack, the woman said, she heard the man say "Ouch." She said he threatened to kill her bird before he suddenly stopped the attack and left her bedroom.
"The beak on this bird looks to be pretty sharp. I wouldn't want it biting me," investigator Stan Johnson said. You can join Unsolved Mysteries and post your own mysteries or
