Man mugged by flock of geese

A student told yesterday how he lost his mobile phone after being “mugged” by an angry flock of geese.

Sam Rozati, 23, was attacked by four birds as he walked past their nest.

They pecked so hard he dropped his phone.

Then one bird grabbed the mobile and disappeared into the undergrowth in Colchester, Essex.

His attempts to find his phone have failed — as it is set on silent.

He said: “I’d never been mugged by anyone before, but now I’ve been mugged by geese.

“I go the long way round to go home now.”
