People in Nizhny Novgorod are still talking about a disturbing scene that happened recently. An eight-year-old boy, angry about sharing some grains he’d found, ripped the head off a pigeon right in front of everyone.
Witnesses say he didn’t hesitate when the bird got close, he just snapped and killed it with his bare hands. What really unsettled people, though, was how the boy just went back to eating, acting like nothing out of the ordinary had happened.
