More Than Two Dozen Guinea Pigs Stolen From Tucson-Area Animal Sanctuary
An animal sanctuary in Marana, Arizona, is reeling after a shocking break-in at its Tucson location left more than two dozen guinea pigs missing. According to the Pima County Sheriff’s Department, two young women were caught on surveillance footage around 1 a.m. Tuesday morning, covering a Ring camera before stealing 25 guinea pigs. Hours later, staff and volunteers arrived to discover doors damaged, supplies scattered across the floors, and cages emptied. The sense of loss was immediate and overwhelming, as these animals require constant attention and specialized care.
