Residents have two very large dogs, which they let out of the house unleashed. Yard is not fenced. Last night they attacked another dog in the neighborhood.
(RE) I live in Hoosier Court Apartments and my window faces the apartment complex across the street. I have seen tenants of the apartment on the bottom level throw their dogs out of the window to use the bathroom, rather than taking them outside. They will dump the dog, and then scream at them to hurry up. If the dog is just sitting there, they get pretty violent. They will scream some more. If a dog is not listening, the husband/dad will come out and smack the dog. All of them yell viciously at these animals. I’ve seen five different dogs be thrown out the window. I also have seen a cat. On top of them screaming and hitting their dogs, it is worrisome that they can’t even take the effort to take the dogs outside, so it is doubtful they are taking much care of them at all. It is the first floor, 1st and 2nd apartment from the right in the photo (it’s a dual unit). I have acquired a video and can attempt to get an address tomorrow. There is no admission box for a video so please reach out with an email and I can send it
They have a dog that is chained 24/7 with a large heavy chain.
There is a dead skunk in the bike path under the railroad bridge that has been hit by a car. Because it is under the bridge the smell is trapped.
There is a dead opossum is the road in front. It is beginning to stink.

: A dead possum is lying on the sidewalk in front of this house.
Our neighborhood is being overrun by free roaming cats. I've witnessed firsthand cats kill song birds in my yard. I chased a cat the other day in an attempt to save a bird. I nearly hit a cat with my car last night because they just sit in the road. I don't know how to address the issue as people don't understand why it is a problem to let their cats roam free.
There is a bird in Fountain Square Mall. It keeps flying around the building and is not finding a way out. We cannot figure out how to catch it.
