Serial Rabbit-Killer on the Loose in Peaceful French Village

If you have something so weird, strange or off-topic to post and think it doesn't belong in any other forum; you're probably right. Please put all your gormless, half-baked, inane, glaikit ideas in here. This might also be a place where we throw threads that appear elsewhere that don't belong ANYWHERE end up, instead of having to flush them. FORUM RULES STILL APPLY.

Serial Rabbit-Killer on the Loose in Peaceful French Village

Serial rabbit-killer terrorises picturesque Brittany village

A serial rabbit-killer who has been spreading terror around a picturesque village in Brittany has struck again.

Police were called after the bodies of seven rabbits were discovered slaughtered and dumped on the ground at a home in the village of Minihy-Tréguier on the Côtes-d’Armor coast on Saturday morning.

Shocked locals had hoped the killings, which reportedly began in March, had stopped after several weeks passed without any animals being killed.

Officers say the mystery killer leaves few if any clues but has the same modus operandi each time: he or she sneaks into private gardens at night, takes the rabbits from their hutches and either stabs them with a needle or sharp object or crushes them underfoot. The bodies are then left on the ground.

“It’s frightening. If they can attack defenceless animals like rabbits, they could very well, one day, attack people, particularly the elderly,” Annick, a villager, told the Le Télégramme newspaper.

A neighbour, Isabelle, added: “You have to be sick to do something like this to animals. I mean, it’s not even to eat them.”

That was only 7 rabbits at the time.
Well, it went up to 120.
That would be a strange movie though, lots of rabbit killings, but still no clue who did it.
I didn't hear about that at the time, but i rarely follow local & national news, the tone is often depressing for no reason, except cases like this of course.
