PETA workers charged
Friday, October 27th, 2006In a moderately humorous story, two PETA workers have been charged with abducting a hunting dog. The humorous part is where the owner of the dog was the animal control officer that pulled them over. Try talking your way out of that! They claimed that they thought the dog was lost, but you’ll note that they removed the dog’s radio tracking collar when they picked it up.
A witness alerted the county animal control officer - who happened to own the dog. The officer stopped the vehicle soon after and, finding his dog inside, turned the case over to a colleague, Morris said.
The dog’s radio tracking collar had been removed and was found near where the women reportedly picked up the animal, Morris added.
