Reward Offered for Information about Emaciated Horse Abandoned Near Los Angeles - *Warning disturbing photo in this report*

 Source: News Release and various sources


Animal control officials announced that a US$7500 reward has been offered for anyone who comes forward with information about the identity of the person responsible for leaving a starving horse on a street in South Gate, a community south-east of downtown Los Angeles.

The horse was in appalling condition and obviously had not received adequate nutrition for quite some time. Neighbors found her in the morning just lying in the street and reported the crime to the South East Area Animal Control Authority of Downey. Kind samaritans brought her some hay and an apple so at least she received some gestures of kindness before she was released from her suffering.

The reward was donated by Minnesota Vikings football player, Jared Allen, and Denise White who is a sports manager. Their contributions were added to an earlier donation by the HSUS. Both Mr. Allen and Ms. White were deeply affected by the story and pictures of the horse.

The South East Area Animal Control Authority investigators are following up on leads and will again canvass the area where the horse was left to die, passing out flyers stating the updated reward amount. Anyone with information on this crime is asked to contact SEAACA at (562) 803-3301 x250 or at www.seaaca.org. Identities of whistleblowers are confidential.
