The video went viral in no time with over 2.5 thousand views.

This isn't the first time that such an incident has taken place. Just last month, a truck full of poultry crashed in Odisha’s Sambalpur district. Locals crowded the area, stole all that they could and the video went massively viral on Twitter. Some people are seen selecting the chicken while a few were seen getting on to the crashed vehicle and pulling out the poultry from within.

In what seemed like a jackpot moment, people were seen carrying chicken in both their hands from the site of the crash.
