McMillen said the bank hired an exterminator to handle its pigeon problem after a bird entered the bank and defecated on a customer.
Poor bird was just making a deposit...

A spotlight and a pellet gun after midnight would have been just as effective.

Death was sometimes an unfortunate side effect, company president Jarrod Horton said. I'm sorry, but I couldn't help to laugh at that statement.

""It was not the intention of the bank to harm any of these birds."
McMillen said the bank hired an exterminator to handle its pigeon problem after a bird entered the bank and defecated on a customer.
"
No, they didn't want to harm the roof rats. They wanted to EXTERMINATE them. Sounds like a good plan.

Sheesh! This happened in Texas!
The bank should have handed out shotguns with birdshot to "the children" and the festival would have been enjoyed by everyone!

I am sorry, but for some reason the thought of hundreds of pigeons falling from the sky just hits me as humorous. Obviously it is not, but it hits me that way.

Dead birds keep falling on my head,
But that doesn't mean my scalp will soon be turnin' red.
Bleedings not for me
But birds keep on falling; they keep on falling
Yet still I bleed.

To paraphrase Les Nessman, "As God is my witness, I thought pigeons could fly."
