Hong Kong police have launched an investigation into a suspected poisoning of two dogs belonging to a former beauty queen.
Miss Hong Kong 2020 winner Lisa-Marie Tse Ga-ye lamented the death of her two dogs on her social media page on Monday, saying she wrote the update with “the heaviest of heartbroken hearts”.
Tse said she had taken her three dogs for a walk on Sunday in She Shan village in Lam Tsuen, where some “very disgusting, horrible and unforgivable person” had left “a meat feast laced with poison” on a path.
“By the time I got to the girls, they had started to drop and have seizures. Unfortunately Peachy didn’t make it to the vet, and Summer passed very soon after,” she said.
“The vet told us the meat was laced with neurotoxins, meaning it hit their brain immediately and there was little to be done.”
Tse added that she believed the act was “well-planned” as the poison had been mixed with a whole roast chicken, sausages and other meats left on a plate.
In a reply to the Post, police said they received a report from a woman on Monday that two of her dogs died after eating meat placed on the road.
