Cattle Rustlers Strike Again
01/23/2013
Cattle Rustlers have struck Lawrence County Farmers again. During the overnight hours of Tuesday January 22 8 calves were taken from the Scott Welch Farm in Lawrence County.
Thieves cut fences and gates through four fields to gain access to the cattle. Taken were the following:
1 gray heifer with a large cyst on the underside
2 black banded bulls
2 white heifers
3 black heifers
Each weighing between 500 lbs and 750 lbs. All are a Angus/Charolais mix breed.
The Sheriff's Office is again asking for assistance in locating the rustlers and encourages citizens to call in all suspicious activity day or night around cattle areas.
