Two turtles killed after being thrown from same building as Victoria Harbour dog

Police are investigating and a force insider said they were looking into whether the two incidents are related. The suspect linked to the dog’s death is still being detained at a police station.

A police spokeswoman said a 27-year-old woman made a report at 11.39am after spotting two “dried up” turtles on the podium of Cheung Fai Building on Cheung Wah Street.

“The turtles were found dead from the fall. Officers found the incident suspicious and are treating the case as cruelty to animals,” she said.
