County: Bollinger

Charges: Misdemeanor
Disposition: Alleged

Alleged: Larry Hottel

A southeast Missouri man faces charges of animal abuse and animal neglect after a horse died and two other animals were found on his property in poor condition.

Larry Hottel of Glenallen could face up to a year in jail if convicted.

An autopsy showed the horse starved. It had dirt and rocks in its bowels.

An investigation began when a witness told authorities she drove past a horse, a pony and a llama that appeared to be neglected in a fenced-in area. Hottel was ordered to have the animals checked by a veterinarian.

But the horse died Friday. Authorities say hay, water and feed were not provided to the animals.
