Wild Horse Shootings Catches Interest of Police Newspaper

Posted by Doreen on March 17th, 2007

A police sergeant of Vancouver by the name of Steven Gibson contacted WHOAS on behalf of the 24SevenCop2Cop News, requesting a story about the wild horses.   This newspaper is distributed free of charge to 40,000 police officers in 36 US states and across Canada.  Sgt Gibson would like to help try to catch this suspect, which he refered to as a coward.  That terminology is highly appropriate to describe the horse killer(s).   I submitted an article to him along with pictures of the horses before and after being gunned down.  We look forward to seeing the article in print and receiving input from possibly hundreds of officers sharing their ideas on who commited these attrocious acts.  We have also had emails from a half dozen officers both currently on the job and retired wanting to assist us.  They were with the RCMP, City of Edmonton Police Service, City of Calgary Police Service and one officer from Florida.  It is indeed  tremendous and heartwarming to know that so many people are wanting to put a stop to the wanton killings of our mustangs, our animal of heritage.
