"I thought they were shoveling snow," Rea said. "But they were using a shovel to carry the small dead animals."
Rea described what he saw: figures allegedly dragging animal carcasses across the street to 244 N. West St. from 243 N. West St. (commonly referred to as The Baseball House).
Sunlight revealed a scene Hillsdale police patrolman Randy Casler said he's never witnessed: a slew of dead animals on the porch of 244 N. West St., including one and a half deer, several large rodents and a black goat with alleged gunshot wounds to the head and sternum. Under the goat, perpetrators placed a copy of the April 2 edition of The Collegian sports section. The main headline read "Lost in left field."
Beyond section editor and senior John Krudy lives at 244 N. West St.
Dean of Men Aaron Petersen arrived on the scene with police at about 5 p.m. Monday. No charges were filed. Petersen and police authorities continue to investigate the vandalism.
