"Not only is it a deeply personal offending, targeted towards the victim, it's also deeply concerning and disturbing to police." "I honestly don't know how anyone could have done that to any animal, let alone a little pup," he said.His 15-year-old was now too scared to go outside at night and had moved bedrooms within the house after seeing the aftermath.
Senior Constable McKenzie said he believed there was someone in the community who knew who was responsible for Boss's death. Firefighters warn of 'significant deterioration' in weather conditions as 80 fires burn across Queensland
