ORLANDO, Fla. – An Orlando woman is accused of cracking multiple goose eggs from a nest at Lake Eola Park. Gayle Wessel, 55, was arrested Sunday evening after she admitted to breaking three to five eggs at the park on East Washington Street in downtown Orlando, according to police.
Orlando police said 16 eggs were found broken not far from the nest on Sunday, according to an arrest report. A witness told police he had just been by the nest earlier and saw all the eggs intact and not disturbed, police said.
A volunteer for the City of Orlando, which owns and cares for the Grey Lag Goose that laid the eggs, said none of the eggs were broken when he checked the nest on Saturday, according to the report.
