Law enforcement officers arrested more than 20 people over the weekend in the biggest dogfighting operation takedown in South Carolina state history, according to the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ).
The officers interrupted a dogfighting match in Richland County Saturday and executed 23 search warrants at properties in Richland, York, Orangeburg, Clarendon, Lee and Sumter Counties, according to the DOJ. In addition to rescuing 305 dogs, officers took about 30 firearms, $40,000 in cash and other evidence related to the dogfighting.
Thank God for these hard working people saving the lives of pets that just want a forever home and love.
