Man Jailed For Cruel Attack On Horses In Leeds

Luke Ward, a 37-year-old resident of Upper Woodview Place in Beeston, has been sentenced to 45 months in prison for a shocking and cruel attack on horses in a field in Leeds.

The disturbing incident took place at a farm located off Hall Lane, Farnley, in July of the previous year. Ward targeted defenceless horses in the field, using a knife to stab, slash, and strangle them. One horse was found with a shoelace tied tightly around its neck in an apparent attempt to strangle it. Three other horses were also discovered with severe injuries, including deep cuts and slashes.
