A family wants justice after a child's prized horse was killed. The nine year old boy who wants to know why someone would kill his pet. The young stallion was shot in the head in mid March on Ron Harrison's ranch in Calvin, Oklahoma.

Several months ago Harrison came home to find his mule shot and killed and his horse "Smoke" shot in the shoulder. He dismissed it as a prank. But then it happened again, this time Smoke was shot execution style behind the ear. The shooting took place in broad daylight around three thirty in the afternoon. Harrison immediately called his daughter so she could tell her nine year old son Wyatt the bad news. "He's pretty upset about it. When he called me, I could tell. You never want to hear your dad cry. You never want to hear your dad broke down," Kari Carrell. Smoke was not only highly looked upon by the family but by breeders as well. Carrell said this horse could have sold for up to $150,000.
