Missing pet stingray, anyone see him? (Aloha, OR)

My pet stingray, Steve has gone missing. I left home for a couple of days, and when I came back he was nowhere to be found! I checked all over my apartment but I couldn't find him. I fear he may have gotten out of the house somehow. If you see him, feel free to approach him; he doesn't bite. Be careful of that pointy thing on his butt though, it can hurt! He is a picky eater, and a fan of earthworms and shrimp. Also be sure to remind him that he is a fish, and as a fish, shouldn't be able to make it so far outside of water and thus is breaking the rules. So should you find him, email me and I will come pick him up asap and also give you a small reward.

Thank you!

Possible Animal Abuse Reports Involving craigslist "free to good home" pet ads.

(Picture from Facebook, not part of the MCSO flash alert)

MCSO asks for Public's Help to Investigate Animal Abuse Reports - 07/08/12 
The Marion County Sheriff's Office has received a number of disturbing calls and emails from concerned residents reporting that domestic animals are being used for target practice in areas of Marion County.

The reports indicate that people who are responding to Craigslist ads offering free domestic animals to good homes, and then using the animals (specifically cats) for target practice.

We are currently trying to determine if these reports are factual. Some reports are quoting Facebook postings and we have heard that there may be photos supporting the behavior.

Our Office aggressively investigates all reports of animal neglect or cruelty and we take these reports quite seriously.

We provide three avenues for reporting what you know about these crimes:

You can call the Marion County Sheriff's Office Tip line at 503.540.8079, and remain anonymous.

You can directly email whatever information you have to Deputy Mark Ferron at Mferron@co.marion.or.us .

You can send any photos depicting this behavior or showing the animals reportedly shot, to Deputy Ferron or the Public Information Officer, Don Thomson at dthomson@co.marion.or.us. Thomson may also be contacted at 503.932.8002.

If these reports are factual, we need your help to stop these attacks and arrest the offenders.
