Man Fined for Tossing Pig at Hotel

WEST POINT, Miss. (AP) - When pigs fly, indeed. Kevin Pugh, 20, of Cedar Bluff, has been fined $279 for tossing a pig over the counter at the Holiday Inn Express in West Point on Nov. 12. Pugh pleaded guilty Tuesday in city court to a charge of disturbing the peace.
West Point Police Lt. Danny McCaskill has said Pugh didn't know the employees of the hotel. There was no evidence intoxication was a factor.
No one was hurt, including the pig, officers said.
"This was the silliest thing I've ever seen," McCaskill said. "Almost every officer we had was involved because the incidents kept happening at different hours."
McCaskill said Pugh was accused of walking into the hotel and throwing the 60-pound pig over the counter.
"He said it was a prank," McCaskill said. "It must be some redneck thing, because I haven't ever heard of anything like it."
McCaskill said there have been four late-night incidents involving animal-tossing at West Point businesses. Twice a pig was tossed and two of the incidents involved possums.
All four of the disturbances took place between 2 a.m. and 4 a.m., McCaskill said. Pugh is accused in a second animal-throwing incident at a Hardee's restaurant. He has pleaded innocent to disturbing the peace in that case and will appear in city court on Dec. 19.

It wasn't meat. It was a pig.

I can see the pig being some weird kind of punk'd prank. But throwing an opossum at someone should be charged as assault with a deadly weapon.

Not a meaner, more vicious (when it feels threatened and cornered), and difficult to kill animal will you find readily available in the United States (badgers and wolverines are worse but where you going to get those?).

Cool, assault with a deadly Marsupial. Sounds like a great movie title!

What is with people in the south? And they think we are strange here in CA! At least we aren't tossing our animals.......
