Horse mutilated in Craig County

Their horse was found slashed and mutilated, now a Salem family is trying to find out who did that.  

"Trigger" was found dead in his Craig County pasture Tuesday morning.

The owners are most concerned about what happened to him after he died.

A veterinarian at Virginia Tech says the horse died of natural causes, but was mutilated after his death.

There haven't been any similar cases reported in the area. Just to be safe, the family moved their two other horses to another pasture.

The family's offering a $1,000 reward for any information that leads them to the person responsible.
