A duck crashed through the windshield of a Minnesota State Patrol helicopter Wednesday night, but the pilot was able to continue flying and landed at the Saint Paul airport.

The State Patrol says the pilot suffered a suspected head injury and was treated and released at an area hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.

The helicopter was providing assistance to law enforcement in Wabasha County.
