Police investigate discovery of several dismembered animals found in Kitchener
The discovery of several dismembered animals in a southern Ontario city this summer has prompted an investigation by local police, who are urging area residents to keep an eye on their pets.
Waterloo regional police say seven dismembered animals have been found in public locations in Kitchener, Ont., since June.
The force detailed the discoveries this week, saying it was also working with the local humane society to determine what happened to the animals and what caused their death.
“It’s very disturbing and very alarming for us, as well as the neighbourhood involved,” police spokeswoman Cherri Greeno said in an interview Wednesday. “We’re taking this very seriously and appealing to the public for their help.”
