Heartbreaking news from Charlotte, North Carolina. Animal rights activists were demonstrating in uptown Charlotte when the
unthinkable happened:
“A guy stopped and threw a kitten out into the street in front of us,” he said.
“When the kitten impacted the street, its leg broke, it panicked, it ran in like a semicircle and was in obvious extreme pain.”
“We immediately ran out and scooped the cat up, and we brought him back up here to this corner. We basically tried to comfort him the best we could,” he said.
The kitten was 6-8 weeks old and broke its leg as it landed.
And while event organizers tried to help it, the kitten died about 10 minutes later.
Police are looking for the car pictured above. Video from Charlotte's WSOCTV.com can be found
