Alicia Mastroianni got the surprise of her life when she discovered a crazed turkey had attacked her Audi convertible and scratched the paintwork. The 26-year-old was about to head out again after her night shift at Boston Children’s Hospital when she noticed a note on her car’s windshield. The note was from one of her neighbors who had watched a massive turkey attack on Mastroianni’s car, which took place over a period of 15 minutes. The neighbor explained that she tried to scare the turkey away, but it ignored her. “Not sure what insurance coverage there is for a car’s turkey attacks,” read the note. "You can't just say, 'Oh, my car was attacked by a turkey.' Without proof, it sounds insane,” said Mastroianni. She was finally able to secure a copy of the video from her neighbor, and with proof in hand filed a claim with her insurance company. As it turns out, her auto insurance policy had a clause for “parked car animal violence,” which she thought was funny because it definitely fit her needs. Unfortunately, because Mastroianni had a $500 deductible, she ended up paying for the repairs herself. She’s hoping that Farmers Insurance will reach out to her for a commercial, as the turkey attacking her car would make a great one.
