Officials look into horse stabbings on North Carolina border
CHARLOTTE, N.C. – A non-profit group which helps at-risk horses is reporting a series of stabbings involving horses in North Carolina and South Carolina.
The Charlotte Observer reports Fleet of Angels says there were instances on Sunday of some horses found stabbed in their pastures. The first incident was on Sept. 25, when a retired horse in Columbus, North Carolina, was found bleeding out from a cut on his back leg.
The Polk County Sheriff’s Office in North Carolina verified some incidents over the border last week. A social media post said that while no livestock had been attacked in the county, there had been reports of attacks on horses in Spartanburg County in South Carolina.
Most of the incidents reported were within 10 miles (16 kilometres) of Campobello, a small town north of Greenville, South Carolina.
