Cat found starved almost to death Saint Johnsbury, VT (US)Incident Date: Friday, Jun 17, 2011 County: Caledonia
Disposition: Alleged
Alleged: Fawn-Marie Hall
Police in St. Johnsbury, Vt., say they've charged a woman who allegedly left her cat at home with no food or water, nearly starving it.
Sgt. Stephen Bunnell says the town manager's office alerted him to a report of possible animal cruelty at a home on Memorial Drive on Friday. A man who complained about it told police he'd found the cat almost dead.
The animal's owner, 23-year-old Fawn-Marie Hall, told police she had been leaving food and water for the cat every three to five days.
The cat was taken to a veterinarian for evaluation.
Hall was cited into Caledonia County Superior Court on Aug. 8, charged with animal cruelty. References |
