Police are investigating after 27 sheep were killed in what officers have called the 'worst livestock attack' they have ever seen.
The incident happened following a dog attack in a field near Sittingbourne. The ewes, who were all believed to be pregnant, were attacked between Christmas Eve and 1pm on Boxing Day.
PC Marc Pennicott, of Kent Police’s Rural Task Force said: "These dogs would have been covered in mud and returned home exhausted and we are committed to identifying their owners. "
Why does he assume the owner/owners weren't present at the time?
