- Iowa, USA -
The Cass County Sheriff’s Office said that on August 2, 2022, deputies were made aware of the killing of two dogs in the area of rural Cumberland.
According to the sheriff’s office, the two deceased dogs were found near a bridge on 660th Street, close to Tucson Road. Before being thrown over the bridge, both dogs had been shot in the head and their back legs had been bound. The sheriff’s office added that both furbabies had been missing since July 27, 2022.
FOX 34 identified Mr. Logan Lank as the dogs’ guardian.
Lank said that his dogs, a 1-year-old female Pitbull named Bella, and a 3-year-old black Labrador named Pepper, were snatched from his home in Cumberland. The bridge where Bella and Pepper were found is just two miles away from his home.
Lank told FOX 34 that when Bella and Pepper went missing, the community was a big help with the search which sadly ended with the heartbreaking discovery.
“All of the neighbors around here loved them. I’ve never had any complaints about them,” he said.
Additionally, according to Lank, the community has donated money towards a reward for any information that would lead to an arrest.
The Cass County Sheriff’s Office is investigating these murders and is asking anyone with information to come forward.
Cass County Sheriff Darby McLaren said whoever did it could face animal cruelty charges and believes, based on pictures, that the dogs were killed around the day they went missing.
Speak up for the VOICELESS VICTIMS. They deserve justice and their murderer deserves to begin his/her rotting process in prison first and then end it in hell!
Please, call the Cass County Sheriff’s Office at (712) - 243 - 2206. Thank you!
