SEATTLE (AP) – Authorities have a person in custody after finding more than 200 animals in a West Seattle home in an animal cruelty investigation.
KOMO-TV reports the Seattle Police Department and Seattle Animal Shelter found 200 animals inside a home, with many dead animals found in a second home on the property.
Authorities said dogs, rabbits, guinea pigs and chinchillas were moved to the Seattle Animal Shelter for evaluation and care.
