Burglar Kills Goldfish: Didn't Want To Leave Witnesses
By Robert Paul Reyes
"Police in Illinois said a 16-year-old burglar killed three fish with poison because he didn't want to 'leave any witnesses' to the crime.
Arlington Heights police said the 16-year-old Arlington Heights boy, an Arlington Heights 15-year-old boy and a 17-year-old boy from Des Plaines are facing residential burglary charges in juvenile court after they allegedly broke into an apartment complex Jan. 24, the Arlington Heights Daily Herald reported Tuesday."

This young punk thought he was being funny when he told his partner-in-crime, "let's not leave any witnesses" and then poured hot sauce and mustard into the fish tank.
An animal lover should pour a bottle of hot sauce down his throat to teach him that there's nothing funny about animal cruelty.
Animal cruelty should be taken very seriously by the police, almost all serial killers were animal abusers when they were children.
This kid needs to be sleeping with the fishes.
