A caretaker of the Tsurugaoka Municipal Dai-ni Elementary School discovered the drowned rabbits inside the 10-square-meter cage placed near the school's gate before noon Friday and alerted police. " We are devastated. We've been telling children how important life is all the time and now this, " Principal Sashichi Nagano said. " I have to tell the children about this when they return to school on Monday, but it's really hard as they knew about new-born rabbits and were looking forward to seeing them. " The cage, the bottom part of which is made of bricks, was turned into a pool as somebody used a hose connected to tap water and swamped it. An adult hare and 12 recently born rabbits were drowned to death. A chicken and seven rabbits survived the sick attack, a school official said. Police said that the deranged attacker struck between 6:40 a.m., when a caretaker last saw the rabbits alive, and 11:30 a.m., when he discovered the carcasses. Investigators are pursuing the case on suspicion of willful destruction of property. © 2001 The Mainichi Newspapers Co. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
