LISA L. COLANGELO writes in the DAILY NEWS: “A rooster with no sense of time or decorum has finally been caught in Brooklyn - giving the good people of Dean St. some much-needed peace and quiet. Animal Care and Control officers nabbed the noisy bird yesterday after a breathless chase over fences and through narrow backyards.”

“Thank goodness, now we can sleep,” said Charles Houston, who has been plagued by the rooster’s serenade in the wee hours for months. “Take him far, far away so he can’t walk back.”
