AUSTRALIA - A MAN and a woman have been charged over the suspected
satanic ritual slaughter of a goat in a Brisbane church.
Police said the beheaded goat was found inside the blood soaked
Bellbowrie Community Church, on Moggill Road, Bellbowrie, in Brisbane's
west, at 5.30am (AEST) on Saturday by a construction worker.
Investigations led detectives to addresses at Acacia Ridge and Coorparoo
in Brisbane's south.
It is alleged animal remains were located in the freezer at the
Coorparoo home as well as a stolen headstone from a graveyard.
A 27-year-old man was arrested today at a Runcorn home in Brisbane's
south and a 25-year-old woman was arrested at a city business.
Both were charged with stealing, unlawful entry and killing an animal.
No court date had been set for the pair, who tonight were in the
Brisbane police watchhouse.
It's alleged the church, which is under repair, had been broken into.
A group of people had been seen near a convenience store in nearby
Kenmore taking pictures of themselves with what looked like a goat's
head about 1.30am on Saturday.
Police suspect the animal may have been killed for a satanic ritual.
