Detectives with the Broward Sheriff’s Office (BSO) Special Victims Unit are seeking information about the cruel and disturbing killing of 30 Egyptian Geese in Cooper City, offering a cash reward of up to $5,000 for tips that lead to the arrest of the involved parties.
According to the January 2, 2025, press release, the unsettling act of animal cruelty occurred at approximately 7:45 pm on Saturday, December 28, 2024, near Southwest 49th Street and Southwest 120th Avenue in Cooper City. According to a witness, the animals were run over by what appeared to be an off-road-style golf cart or other vehicle similar in appearance to a Bighorn Explorer Crew 400, and was occupied by about 4 or 5 young adults.
