A man allegedly had sex with a horse in Colorado while owner watched the act on surveillance camera. Colorado police are now looking for the suspect.
The incident happened on Thursday around 10pm, Durango Police said, as reported by New York Daily News.
“The caretaker of the horse had a video surveillance camera inside the stall and was watching the act,” police said in a statement. The owner took a screenshot of the suspect, which police included in their post of the incident. It's currently being investigated by La Plata County Animal Protection. “The suspect noticed the video surveillance camera and took it” before fleeing, police said.
Officers responded to the scene but were unable to find the suspect. They got hands on a backpack that they believe belongs to the man. Photos of the backpack and a possibly related bicycle and jacket were shared on Twitter.
"Durango Police Department and La Plata County Animal Protection are seeking the public’s help in identifying an animal cruelty suspect from an incident that occured at La Plata County Fairgrounds on June 17," read the post.
The suspect was described as having shoulder-length hair thought to be “lighter in color.” Authorities said that he was wearing a hoodie with a horizontal stripe, a hat, glasses and a mask during the sick attack. “This case is very concerning based on the sexually deviant behavior of the suspect,” police said. “We believe there is a public safety concern, and we would like to identify this suspect as soon as possible.”
Meanwhile, a 29-year-old Dublin woman accused of having sex with a dog will face trial, reported Irish Examiner. It is alleged that she performed an act of buggery with an animal, which was a mixed breed dog. It was part Rottweiler. The incident allegedly happened at her home in December 2019.
Directions from the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) were received and within the last month she was charged. She was granted station bail and the case had its first listing at the Dublin district court last week. Due to Covid-19 restrictions, she did not have to attend the hearing, but she had told a solicitor to be in court. A judge adjourned the case until a date in September.
