Watauga Sheriff’s Deputies Respond To Dispute Over Thanksgiving Turkey on Thursday

By Jesse Wood

Deputies with the Watauga County Sheriff’s Office responded to a dispute between roommates over the Thanksgiving turkey, according to a deputy’s shift report.

The incident occurred at a residence on the 400 block of Clint Norris Road on Thursday.

According to the shift report, “It was determined that this was actually a dispute between roommates over who was going to cook the turkey for Thanksgiving.”

One roommate had already left by the time deputies arrived at the residence.

“The other party was in the process of packing their belonging to move out when deputies arrived,” the report read.

It’s still not clear if they were fighting over who was going to cook the turkey or who was not going to cook the turkey.
