A burglary in Montauban (Tarn-et-Garonne) took a tragic turn: a dog was found dead, the victim of a cruel act, while jewelry and clues abandoned in the garden testify to the haste of the perpetrators, Saturday November 16, 2024.
It is a particularly shocking scene that a couple recently settled in Montauban (Tarn-et-Garonne) discovered upon their return home. On Saturday November 16, 2024, in their isolated home surrounded by a wood located at the top of a dead end in the Clos Maury district, they noticed, in addition to the stolen goods, a break-in marked by an act of incredible cruelty: Peeper , a five-year-old dachshund, is found dead in the kitchen, apparently the victim of an attack.
According to information from The Dispatchthe intruders allegedly entered the premises by breaking the rear kitchen door. The dog, left alone by his owners for the day, was found bathing in a pool of blood when they returned.
The animal had significant hemorrhage in the hindquarters. Although no traces of blows were noted on the canine by investigators, everything nevertheless suggests that the dog was deliberately targeted by the suspects. In shock, the owner expressed his deep sorrow at the tragic loss of his dog.
Upstairs, the couple's bedroom was found upside down. A bag containing jewelry was discovered in the garden, apparently abandoned in a hurry. Experts from the Judicial Identity (IJ) of Montauban were dispatched to the scene to collect biological clues and fingerprints in an attempt to confuse the perpetrators.
