A video has been posted online of a goat being beheaded in a children's swimming pool; New Orleans SPCA fears the video was taken in the 700 block of Broadway St., Uptown. The video shows one man beheading the goat, that has its neck strung up, and four other men cheering throughout the video. The SPCA was made aware of the video on Monday and retrieved a 12 second cell-phone video the next day.

In January, a beheaded goat was found in Brechtel Park in Algiers, however the two incidents do not seem to be related.

The SPCA is offering a $13,000 reward for any information that can lead to the arrests of these men. If you have any information, please call 504.368.5191, extension 100 or email dispatch@la-spca.org.

Stay tuned for more updates.
