Peter McCauley A MAN tied a chicken to a tree and then instructed his eight-year-old son how to shoot it with a crossbow.
Blackburn magistrates heard the boy fired two bolts at the terrified animal and when they bounced off his dad moved him closer. The third bolt went through the chicken’s neck before Peter McCauley stepped forward and fired a bolt which also went through its neck. The court was told McCauley then pulled out both bolts while the chicken was still alive. McCauley recorded the whole horrific incident and then posted it on social media. McCauley, 28, of Rhyddings Street, Oswaldtwistle, pleaded guilty to causing unnecessary suffering to a protected animal. He was sentenced to 12 weeks in prison suspended for 12 months and ordered to do 200 hours’ unpaid work and pay £400 costs and £128 victim surcharge. He was banned from keeping animals for five years.
