Turkey With Arrow in Chest Captured in Ramona

Officials have been looking for the turkey for weeks.

An evasive wild turkey with an arrow through its chest has finally been captured and taken for treatment in the San Diego Country Estates, according to a report.

"The turkey was first discovered a month ago with an arrow through its chest.  The arrow appeared to enter the bird in its lower back and protruded through its chest.  However, cell phone video taken by a San Diego Country Estates resident showed the turkey moving around and eating just fine," 10News reported.

The report stated that officials have been looking for the bird dubbed "Archer" for weeks. It's not clear where the arrow came from.
