[May 23, 2009]  NEW HAVEN, Conn. (AP) -- New Haven housing officials are trying to figure out why someone left slaughtered chickens on a man's bed and put rotting fish under it. Police said the dead animals were found in a man's room at housing located on Lombard Street earlier this week.

Philip Elliott had rented one of three bedrooms on the second floor of the house for $150 a week, and he and tenants in the other rooms shared the kitchen and bathroom.

Police said one of his roommates woke up Monday and smelled a vile odor. The building superintendent went upstairs and found three dead chickens on the bed and blood splattered on the floor.

Fish were found under the bed and later in the closet.
