Two calves butchered in 'wicked and unbelievable' farm attack

West Mercia

West Mercia Police

Two calves have been killed and others injured in a 'wicked' and 'unbelievable' overnight farm attack in Worcestershire.

The attack saw two calves killed and butchered leaving only their innards and heads behind, and several more injured.

It is believed those who killed the 12-month-old calves at the farm in Frankley Green Lane did so in order to harvest ‘black market meat’ to be sold on for profit.

Local farmer Mr Whiteman immediately alerted the authorities and the RSPCA to what had happened on 16 October, with the attack having taken place overnight.
