California Men Charged with Shooting at Wild Burros

Three California men have been charged with attempting to shoot wild burros in a residential area of Moreno Valley.

In a written statement, the Riverside County Sheriff's Office said deputies responded to a call about men using a firearm to shoot at feral burros near occupied homes in Moreno Valley on April 18. The statement noted that deputies recovered the firearm, and an investigation revealed that none of the feral burros were injured in the incident.

Deputies subsequently arrested Jonhy Fabela, Joel Rodriquez, and Edurado Loza, charging them with attempted animal cruelty and discharging a firearm in a grossly negligent manner.

None of the three were available for comment.

The investigation remains open.

Meanwhile, anyone with information about the incident or any crime related to it should call Officer Alcantar at the Moreno Valley Station at 951/486-6700 or Crime Tips at 800/950-2444.
