Two dogs killed several chickens at a Findlay residence on Tuesday. Police responded to a call at 915 East Sandusky Street about two dogs being inside the chicken coup and killing 25 chickens. Melissa Humphress told the officers that she believes someone put the dogs in the coup. She said that the gate is held tightly and could only be moved by a person.

The two dogs had collars with dog licenses attached. A dog warden was called to the scene. Using the dog licenses, they confirmed that Mark Yingling of South Street was the owner. Yingling was cited for dogs running at large. The warden said that he believes the dogs could have gotten the gate open themselves.
