Sheriff
Scott London said the suspects were brought in for questioning and
allegedly admitted to shooting the animals. No charges have been filed
because of the ongoing investigation.
Dolie Bond-Bradford said the shooting on her son's
ranch involved three young hunters who had originally gone dove hunting
and turned their sights on two cows, two calves, a pregnant mare and
another horse, a loss of several thousand dollars.
"I cried when I saw what they had done," Bond-Bradford
said, noting that she and her late husband owned the ranch before their
son, Mark Bond, took it over.
Bond-Bradford said the dead livestock were discovered by other hunters who reported it to law enforcement.
"My granddaughter posted on her Facebook page asking
anyone with information about the shooting of the livestock to call
her," Bond-Bradford said. "One of the boys involved in the shooting of
the animals apparently bragged about it at school. Someone contacted her
and the information was given to the sheriff's department."
