Man Kill Cats for Research
A Kentucky man is facing animal abuse charges after allegedly torturing and killing four cats. Louisville Police arrested Alex Phelps, 24, on Dec. 30, after a tip line call led investigators to the Bullitt County man. Police say Phelps confessed to stabbing and killing the animals using a sharp knife.Police have found three cats tortured to death in southern Jefferson County over the past couple of months. Bullitt County police also discovered two mutilated cats behind a Kroger in early December. Investigators say all the dead cats found over the last month have similarities including the gruesome way they were tortured, the injuries to the cats are so gruesome. They were stabbed multiple times and their intestines were out.
Investigators still looking for possible reasons why did a man do this kind of animal killing but according to Phelps, he was conducting some type of research.
Phelps was also arrested back in 2007 for possession of marijuana and drug paraphernalia. Police say he could face charges in Bullitt County as well.
