At approximately 18H30 today, while on routine patrol, one of our vigilant Armed Response Officers noticed something unusual as they turned into Soofie Saheb Road from Uitsig Road in the Durban North area. The Officer spotted an driver of a vehicle attempting to catch a bird on the side of the road. Sensing something was amiss, the officer stopped to assess the situation.
As the officer approached, the driver quickly got back into his vehicle and drove away. Upon closer inspection, the officer discovered that the bird was a missing African Grey parrot. Remarkably, the bird jumped into the officer’s hand, seemingly recognizing a safe haven.
Earlier today, at approximately 09h35, Marshall Security’s Emergency Dispatch Centre had been informed to be on the lookout for a missing African Grey parrot named Halo.
The bird’s owner was contacted immediately, and Halo was safely returned home, much to the relief and joy of the family.
This heartwarming incident once again showcases Marshall Security’s commitment to serving the community in any capacity, whether responding to emergencies or reuniting beloved pets with their owners.
We commend our officer for his keen observation and swift actions in ensuring Halo was safely returned.
