Police then searched another enclosure on the property, where they found pigeons, reports say. Because officers believe the pigeon coop “had never been cleaned,” the layer of feces on the ground of the coop was four inches thick, according to the report.
Police say there was no food or water inside the coop, beside a few pieces of food scattered on the floor.
