SUN CITY, Fla. -- Hillsborough County officials are looking for the people responsible for stabbing and stealing pigs from the Sun City Stables.

The sheriff's office reports that a 400-pound pig was stabbed dozens of times sometime between Saturday night and Sunday morning.

Another pig at the petting zoo was also attacked and two others are missing. Authorities have dusted for fingerprints around the pig pen but they are still looking for suspects.

Meanwhile, the pigs are being treated for their wounds.

It was a "Petting" zoo? An honest mistake on my part.

If what I just wrote made you sad or angry,
