Police and wildlife volunteers in southeast London report that several parakeets are found dead after attacks using catapults. The Greenwich Wildlife Network says the birds have been killed by young people using catapults, and Metro reports that five dead parakeets were found in a park in a single day.
Both reports describe the deaths as recent incidents involving multiple birds and occur in the same general area of London. While the BBC highlights the alleged use of catapults by local young people, Metro focuses on the number of dead birds found over a short period. Neither outlet provides further details in the published summaries about arrests, investigations, or the specific location within the borough.
