Animal Cruelty report in Montgomery under investigation by Sheriff’s Office
UPDATE 1/4/24 1:26pm – We would like to provide an update on the ongoing investigation into the animal cruelty incident that occurred recently. The homeowners involved in the incident have been cooperating fully with law enforcement authorities. It is important to note that both homeowners are animal lovers and are deeply upset about what has transpired.
Upon further investigation, it has been determined that neither homeowner was present at the residence when the attack took place. This information is crucial in understanding the circumstances surrounding the incident.
Our dedicated team of Detectives is assisting the Montgomery County Precinct 2 Constable Office Animal Cruelty Unit, which is taking over the investigation and is diligently working to gather all the necessary evidence and information to determine the cause and nature of the attack. We are doing everything we can to ensure the safety and well-being of all animals involved.
