GENEVA — A radar image of a speed offender caught in central Switzerland last month revealed that the culprit was not only a duck, but likely a repeat offender, local authorities said.
Police in the town of Koniz, near the capital Bern, were astounded when they went through radar images snapped on April 13 to discover that a mallard was among those caught in the speed trap, the municipality said on its Facebook page at the weekend.
The duck was caught going 52km an hour in a 30-km zone, the post said.
The story, first reported by the Berner Zeitung newspaper on Monday, got even stranger.
