Police have issued a warning after a video circulating on social media showed a teenager throwing a cat into a quarry.
In the 14-second clip, which was reportedly filmed in the Carnforth area of Lancashire, a youth appears to be standing at the side of a large cliff holding the animal in his right hand. The cat does not appear to be moving before it is thrown at a great height into the water below.
The footage, which the M.E.N has decided not to share, is believed to have initially begun circulating on Snapchat before being shared on Facebook and Twitter. "I'm disgusted," one person said in response to the video. Another said: "There are some sick individuals in the world."
