Jeff Co Couple Offers Reward in Horse's Death
04/02/2013

GRANTVILLE, Kan. (AP) - A Jefferson County  couple wants to know why someone shot and killed their daughter's 11-year-old horse.

Gary and Ara Carbonneau of rural Grantville are offering a $1,000 reward for information leading to the arrest in the shooting of the chestnut filly named Aimee. WIBW reports the couple's insurance company added another $1,000 to the reward fund.

The couple says someone trespassed on their property last Tuesday and shot the horse at point-blank range. Topeka veterinarian Ed Kester says the bullet passed through the horse's liver and stomach before lodging in her intestine.

The Jefferson County Sheriff's Office is investigating.

Tips may be made by calling the Kansas Crime Hotline at 1-800-KSCRIME or by email through the sheriff's office website at jeffersoncountyksheriff.com/crime_tip.php
