The owner of the celebrity parrot which features throughout the Pirates of Caribbean films has been jailed after being caught driving with the bird on her shoulder.
Ludmila Sweeney was pulled over and arrested at the Port of Dover in September last year after officers spotted her driving around with the giant macaw, called Chip, perched on her arm. But as she was questioned about her 14th driving conviction, her pet attacked a policeman who was trying to move her car.
The over-protective parrot which was loose within the vehicle bit and scratched PC Dadd as he attempted to move the car.
Sweeney, 58, of Berkshire, pleaded guilty to driving whilst disqualified and was jailed for five months and disqualified from driving for six years. Chip the parrot on the other is free.
