Police in Innisfil have identified the culprits suspected for what they are calling an “appalling prank”.
On February 24, officers were called to the intersection of Corner Avenue and Killarney Beach Road after an animal carcass was discovered inside an open briefcase with an anti-Semitic symbol painted on the lid.
An investigation has led police to determine the incident was not a criminal act, but an immature prank where the teens didn’t realize the full impact of their actions.
Police say the animal was road kill and was already dead before the incident.
The teens and their parents have been cautioned about the gravity of what was done.
Police thank area residents who helped in the investigation.
