PHILADELPHIA - Less than 24 hours after police found human remains inside a trash bag in the back of a U-Haul during a traffic stop.
Crime scene investigators and animal protection officers were at a home on Sanibel Street Friday morning.ACCT Philly says they assisted police where an owner is no longer able to care for their animals anymore.
They took 63 exotic animals from the home."Parrots, tortoises and bearded dragons," Sarah Barnett with ACCT Philly said. "Generally speaking they seemed in good health."Public records and neighbors on Sanibel Street identified the man who lived in the home as 70-year-old Peter Gerold.
