ORIGINAL STORY
Las Vegas police investigating the death of a horse are asking the public to help identify the person who killed it.
The Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department says a video posted on social media prompted the animal cruelty investigation, which began on June 27.
"The video appears to show a white single-cab pickup truck pulling a dark-colored horse with white markings," police stated in a Tuesday news release.
