CNN —Three teenagers have been arrested in connection with killing and “consuming” a beloved swan in a Syracuse, New York, suburb, and stealing four young swans this week, police said.
A mature female swan named Faye and her four young swans, also known as cygnets, were reported missing from the swan pond Monday, police in the village of Manlius said.
The three friends, who attend the same high school, hopped over the fence surrounding the swan pond in the middle of the night, Hatter said.
We will continue to have swans,” Whorrall said.
The swans have been in Manlius since 1905, according to Whorrall, and the village cares for and feeds them.
