Around 100 racing pigeons were killed in an arson attack on pigeon lofts at allotments in Padiham, near Burnley.

 

The attack happened at around 2:45am last night (Sat 8th March) and two fire engines were on scene for nearly two hours.

 

Whilst the fire spread through one loft, fire fighters managed to save 80 birds from adjoining lofts.

 

This is the latest attack on pigeon lofts, which have been the target of numerous recent attacks.

 

If you know any fancier suffering from an act of arson or other criminalities, please check out the Pigeonbasics Fund.

It makes you sick knowing there are kids out there that just don't give a damn about animals and birds and hate them that much that they burn them alive. Well I hope they catch them and throw away the key. :X :X

[carlsberg]

[pjc]

if it was kids and they do get caught they won't do anything to them! Do you think its going to be kids at that time of the morning or just some jealous sick B*****d?

Kids, if it was kids out at 2.45am should be treated as adults, if not, then their parents should be held responsible for allowing them out at that time. If the parents are not responsible enough to look after them, then put them or their kids in a placement where they will be held resposible.

Sadly it is not just kids that behave like this, it is done by jealous vindictive adults as well >

 

Worst enemy you can have is a coward >

Have to agree with you on that one, hope somebody from the Forum knows him and puts an application in to the pigeon basics fund for some financial help on his behalf.

If quotes are true, then it is his daughter that is considering the idea that it may have been another fancier, sadly it won't have been the first time another fancier has seeked vengance in a totally diabolical way towards another :-/

[Guest chrisss]

if it is kids then their parents should be gelded [along with them] to make sure they cannot breed anymore filth like themselves ,i was going to make a few more suggestions but this is a mixed sex forum [it involves a meathook]if it was another "fancier" apply the meathook as a first option

[Guest Greig the doo Drysdale]
