Man arrested for alleged cruelty to ferrets

Man arrested for alleged cruelty to ferrets

SHARE THIS STORY:

Published by the Minster FM News Team at 10:15am 3rd December 2019.


North Yorkshire Police have arrested a man on suspicion of damaging cars and cruelty to ferrets.

Officers were called to an incident on Woodfield Road, Harrogate, at about 7.30pm on Monday 2nd December 2019.

It was reported that a man had damaged a number of vehicles along the road, using a ferret box to hit them, and had also thrown a pair of ferrets at a vehicle.

A 25-year-old man, of no fixed address, was detained by members of the public, and arrested by police on suspicion of criminal damage and causing unnecessary suffering to a protected animal.

At least a dozen vehicles were damaged, including smashed windows, dents and scratches.

The two ferrets are now in the care of the RSPCA.

A spokesperson for North Yorkshire Police said:

“We are requesting the public’s assistance to help establish the full circumstances surrounding this incident, and ask for any victims who haven’t already come forward to contact North Yorkshire Police. 

This would have been a very disturbing and alarming incident to those who witnessed it, and we are keen to speak to anyone who has information that could assist the investigation.”
