Accused flamingo-killer unfit for trial
TAMPA (FOX 13) - The Orlando man accused of killing 'Pinky' the flamingo is unfit for trial.
Joseph Carrao appeared before a judge this morning. Doctors who evaluated him said he is incompetent to stand trial.
Last August, Carrao was accused of grabbing Pinky from a pen at Busch Gardens and slamming the bird to the ground.
Pinky, 19, was a Chilean flamingo who hatched at the park in 1996. Her dancing movements made her one of the park's stars.
Carrao will now get treatment to restore his competency.
