A turkey flew through a glass window in a bank in downtown Dubuque on Tuesday, bank officials said.

The turkey shattered the window just after 12:30 p.m. at the US Bank branch, located at 270 W. 7th Street. Employees at the bank reported hearing a sound like a bomb went off.

Dubuque Police officers removed the carcass of the bird, which did not survive the attempted break-in.
