The Wagoner County Sheriff's Department are investigating a suspected case of animal neglect after confiscating twenty-two malnourished horses and eight dogs.

Sheriff's deputies conducted a search warrant on the property on January 26

after a Wagoner resident witnessed several horses running wild on the property. The property has been abandoned for three months, but officials are still unsure how long the animals have been neglected.

No charges have yet been filed, pending a full investigation and a decision by the District Attorney.
