Corker worker, man in chicken suit have run-in
Police investigate hit-and-run case

By BONNA de la CRUZ
Staff Writer

Feathers flew Friday in downtown Chattanooga when a volunteer for U.S. Senate candidate Bob Corker says he was hit by a car driven by a man in a chicken suit who had been heckling the candidate.

"I will definitely not be having poultry for dinner. That's for darn sure," said Bryan Shannon, 30, who works for an insurance company in Chattanooga.


The impact was hard enough to throw Shannon off his feet and into the car's windshield, shattering glass. Shannon said he was left with a headache and cuts on his left hand and arm.

There's another side of the story, according to the campaign of rival candidate Ed Bryant.

The man in the chicken suit, a Bryant supporter, may press charges against Shannon for "physically assaulting his car," Bryant campaign manager Michael Luethy said.

"Bob Corker and his campaign need to lighten up and get a sense of humor or enroll in anger-management class," Luethy said.

1. okay,,,,,
That's just plain dumb. I have never seen anything like that in politics, where you can justify a hit and run of anyone. Totally shameful.
