The turkey matador of Dorchester finds himself surrounded

Welcome to Dot files a dispatch this afternoon from Ocean Street in Dorchester, already known for the meanest turkeys in all of Boston:
Minding my own business on the porch, a car starts honking at the turkeys to move out of the street, they get riled up and chase a pedestrian who starts yelling at them and now he's been standing on this car for 10 minutes
And here's what led up to the guy feeling like he has to jump up on the hood of somebody's Accord:
I feel a little bad for reaching for the phone at the time but if you think you are going to be a turkey matador instead of just trying to get away from the birds I think you should be on video as a warning to others. https://t.co/dQLXHaW6LO pic.twitter.com/IryPdOqEvr

These absolute units are currently doing more to roll out slow streets in Dorchester than any city program pic.twitter.com/MqKWx9hRaI

UPDATE:
Welcome to Dot reports Señor Matador de los Pavos was finally rescued:
BPD sent a cruiser to try to disband this bunch, but that "move along" beep just got a bunch of gobbles pic.twitter.com/7SNfmbhfNP

Miss TLF so much!
.
That was the TLF
Well at least a squad from the TLF keeping the streets safe for turkeys.
Adorable.
Adorable.
I’m sending this to family
I’m sending this to family and friends in New Hampshire who are going bear hunting this weekend thank you
Standing on a car?
Perhaps he hadn't noticed, but (Les Nessman aside) turkeys can fly. If they were intent on doing him harm, perching on a car wouldn't help. They are apparently satisfied that he's out of their way. If it's not his Honda, he may have other problems ahead...
