Reward Offered In Acid Burning Of Dogs
posted 10:13 am Mon July 21, 2008 - Tulsa
A one-thousand dollar reward is being offered for information leading to the arrest and conviction of the person or people involved in the recent burning of several dogs.
As we told you last week, five dogs were discovered at three different locations in the Tulsa County area. All had been burned down the middle of their backs with acid or some other type of chemical.
Two of the dogs have since died.
"We know they were burned," Deputy David Long told NewsChannel 8's Bill Mitchell last week. "Whether it was some kind of acid or some kind of accelerant that was poured on them, we're not sure."
Investigators say they are sure of one thing -- that this was no accident. They say abuse like this is a felony and if found guilty, a person could be sentenced to five to ten years in prison.
The reward is being offered by the Humane Society of Tulsa. Anyone with information should call 495-DOGS.
