Family pets stolen for bait or as killers by dogfighting ring in Texas

Family pets were stolen by a dog fighting ring and trained them to be killers or were used as baits. Mr. A. Tyler from Texas has been arrested in this case so far.

In a nearby vacant lot, police discovered the remains of six dogs believed to have been killed or used as bait in the fights. One of the fatally mauled dogs had its mouth taped shut, likely so it could not defend itself, Tyler Animal Control field supervisor Gary Chambers said.

Police expect to make more arrests, but some of the people who have come forward to help have also said they were afraid for their safety.
