Sumner County deputies and Humane Society workers went to a home near Mulvane on Tuesday to shut down a suspected cockfighting operation.
Sumner County Sheriff’s Lieutenant Tyler Carmichael told KFDI’s news partners at KWCH that an investigation has been going on over the past couple of years, and more information will be released later this week. Sheriff’s detective Andrea Wagner said there were a significant number of animals at the home, discovered when a search warrant was executed.
Carmichael said the Sheriff’s Office is working with state and national partners to evaluate the situation and they were planning to be on the scene west of Mulvane throughout the day.
