Police are looking to interview an Austin man who allegedly hung a cat by a string and burned the animal in a backyard fire pit.
An Austin police community service officer took a report about 9:30 a.m. Wednesday from someone about a 34-year-old man who killed one of two house cats Monday while drunk at a home, Police Chief Paul Philipp said.
