A grisly equine atrocity has struck the tranquil stretches of Waller County, Texas, where authorities are on a manhunt for a suspect connected to the cold-blooded shooting of a horse found lifelessly dumped on a roadside. The gruesome discovery, made by a local early Thursday morning around 8:30 a.m. on Jones Road, just south of Whitt Loggins Road, has juxtaposed the stark cruelty against the serene Texan backdrop according to FOX 26 Houston.
In the wake of the incident, the Waller County Sheriff’s Office has raised the clarion call for public assistance, eagerly gathering any strands of information that could lead to those responsible. Found with its head bearing the brunt of a close-range gunshot and its legs bound by a rope, the horse was unceremoniously discarded as if merely the remnant of some perverse sport. Witnesses who might have spied a truck or horse trailer near the vicinity during the morbid affair have been urged to come forward and lay bare any helpful details to the Livestock Division Click2Houston reported.
Those with the beginner’s mind to comprehend such brutality are being encouraged by the Sheriff’s Office to contact either the Waller County Livestock Division at 979-826-8282, Option 1, or CRIME-STOPPERS at 979-826-8266 for those preferring the veil of anonymity.
