Police investigate Flo Rida animal cruelty claims
By CMU Editorial | Published on Friday 27 March 2009
Two members of Flo Rida’s entourage are wanted for questioning after witnesses claim they killed a rabbit in Lexington, Kentucky following an in-store performance by the rapper in the town on Wednesday.
According to witnesses, the two men got off the tour bus, “brutally” killed a rabbit for no obvious reason, and then got back on the bus again.
Lexington Police, Kentucky Police and Lexington Animal Control officials have launched a joint investigation into the claims and are seeking to question the two men. However, it is thought that the tour bus had already left the area before police became involved.
As news of the bunny killing spread, Flo Rida denied involvement in the incident, telling AllHipHop.com: “While no one in my party was in any way involved in any incident, the media report that I saw was sickening,” he said. “As an animal lover, I would never want to see cruelty inflicted upon them”.
