Canadian Man Charged With Flamingo Theft | Las Vegas News

A Canadian man, Mitchell Fairbarn, faces serious charges after allegedly stealing a flamingo named Peachy from a Vegas hotel, then harming it in his room—evidence reportedly shows him laughing while choking and tossing the bird. Now on $12K bail with passport seized and electronic monitoring, he’s been barred from seeing his kids and missing his father’s funeral, while his 15-person business suffers. His lawyer argues he’s low-risk, earns $71K/year, and just wants to sort out personal affairs before trial—but prosecutors fear he’ll flee since he’s not a U.S. citizen. The judge sided with prosecutors, keeping restrictions in place. Trial is set for October 12th. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
