Window Cleaner Fired After Killing Sea Gull

A high-rise window washer in Boston has been fired because he killed a sea gull on the job.

Christopher Guay was washing windows at a building on Devonshire Street last Friday. He told WBZ Radio’s Carl Stevens he was being harassed by sea gulls.

“I was waving a broom all day and it was working up until the end of the day and I accidentally whacked one of them and killed it.”

When he went to work Monday morning, he was told he was fired.

Guay says he loves animals. He and his wife have 14 finches, 2 parakeets, 4 doves, 3 cats, 2 dogs, a snake and several other pets.

He’s charged with animal cruelty.
