Police say a 33-year-old Oregon homeowner intentionally locked three pigs inside his home after it went into foreclosure.
Police in Clackamas County are looking for a man they say locked three live pigs in his house in the hopes that they would trash the place. All because he was upset the home went into foreclosure.
Detective Jim Strovink with the Clackamas County Sheriff’s Office said deputies are trying to find 33-year-old Shane Lovett.
Lovett bought a home on SE Wildcat Mountain Drive in Eagle Creek a few years ago. In January the house went into foreclosure. Neighbors told police that Lovett was extremely distraught over the the situation.
"All the windows are broken, he obviously dumped some gravel on top of the roofline, he took his excavator and smashed it into the wall," said Bradshaw.
The yard is full of garbage.
"It's almost like he had to go collect trash to put that much trash in there," said a neighbor.
"I don't see any way to salvage it," the neighbor said. "It's pretty obvious that he just decided that if I'm not going to make a profit, nobody's going to make a profit.
Lovett apparently told several people that he had put the animals inside the house over a week ago and even joked about the fact that they did not have any water.
When deputies responded to complaints about the pigs, the inside and outside of the home were trashed.
The three pigs had a way to get out but couldn't muster the courage to jump a few feet down to a patio below the home's back door.
Thomas Getten, an animal rescue expert from Estacada, was called to rescue the pigs. He was able to coax them out of the house with some food. He said the three pigs were a little dehydrated but otherwise doing fine.
Anyone with information about Lovett was asked to call the Clackamas County Sheriff’s Office.
