OKLAHOMA CITY (KFOR) -- An investigation is underway after dogs' bodies were found dumped along the side of an Oklahoma City road. It's a problem a resident says has been happening for months.
“I called 911 and they transferred me to animal control and said we'll get somebody out there, but I've called before and it's still the same thing,” said Olivia Zeinlabdin.
She says it's not just dogs, but also cats that look like they've been killed and dumped in tubs, blankets and trash bags.
Zeinlabdin has tried to get help but hasn't received any answers or help, so she called News 4 KFOR-TV.
For the last few months, Zeinlabdin says she's seen dead animals line the ditch on portion of Classen near N.W. 104th.
“One of them has all of the skin has been removed off the dog and the other one looks like it's just been killed,” Zeinlabdin said.
After speaking with Olivia, News 4 called OKC Animal Control to get answers. They promptly sent a crew out to pick up the dead animals, and began an investigation.
