12 Animals Brutally Slain At Urban Detroit Farm



Investigators want to know what's behind a gruesome discovery at an urban Detroit farm: five goats and seven chickens slain without explanation.

"It was a pretty gruesome scene," said Mark Ramos, senior investigator for the Michigan Humane Society. "I can't comment on much more because it's still an open investigation, but it was pretty gruesome."

 The fenced-in school campus consists of a large school building, which takes up two city blocks, several art buildings and a couple of barns. The animals were kept in a pen at the rear of the school.

A school official found goats and chickens slaughtered Friday morning and contacted Detroit police. The Michigan Humane Society then took over the investigation. Two other chickens were found injured and were removed from the scene.

The motive or weapons used in the attack were not immediately known, Ramos said.
