A trip to cover a story at West Guth Park turned into an entirely different story Monday afternoon.
As our photojournalist was at the park covering a story about the duck pond he noticed a group of people grabbing the geese by the neck.
The video shows a woman first feeding the geese when all of a sudden she grabs one by the neck and then grabs another.
The geese are clearly trying to get away but can’t.
Moments later, a child is seen with his hands wrapped around a goose’s neck while standing over it.
Our photojournalist called the police. When the officers arrived they watched our video and told us they were pursuing animal cruelty charges.
