SHARPSBURG (KDKA) — There is disturbing new evidence of animal abuse in Sharpsburg.

Investigators tell the KDKA Investigators there is new evidence of animal abuse.

Human Officers say they found a decapitated duck late Thursday. Kathy Hecker with Animal Friends is hopeful reward money will draw enough attention to the case.

“The reward, however, has grown. It’s up to $2,000. People have pledged because they’re concerned and they want this person stopped,” says Hecker.

Meantime, resident Jamie Ganster, who lives along the railroad tracks in Sharpsburg, made two gruesome discoveries in the last few months.

Ganster found a skinned deer and a raccoon stuffed into a box.

“This sounds like some twisted haunted trail to me. This dead deer and this raccoon with its head sticking out of a box – it’s just bizarre. It’s really bizarre,” says Ganster.

Humane officers found two decapitated cats along the railroad tracks in Sharpsburg. Investigators also found some sort of animal with a stake holding it onto the railroad tracks.

Police have no suspects at this time. Humane officers say they are following several leads but have no strong suspects at this time.
