Written by Police have reportedly found the young woman in a red shirt who was filmed throwing puppies into a river.
Local police in Travnik, on the eastern edge of Bosnia near the Croatian border, identified the girl after her parents reportedly turned her in, according to news report leaked to local online news outlet Index.hr.
The girl – who remains unidentified – and her parents were asked to make the roughly 40 km journey to the city of Bugojno to make an official statement to police.
The investigation garnered international attention after a video hit the Internet on Tuesday showing a young girl, likely a teenager, picking up puppies from a white bucket and hurling them into a roaring river. She can be heard to laugh or say “whee” as she does so.
The video sparked an international furor among animal rights activists and sympathizers.
