CONTENT WARNING: This video contains imagery of an act of animal cruelty that some viewers will find disturbing.

In the small town of Lincolnton, Georgia, a cat was senselessly hunted down, shot, and killed on April 17, 2026. According to a police report and body camera footage, the shooter was Lizzy Long, the wife of Lincolnton Mayor Mike McCombs. Even more disturbingly, McCombs actively encouraged the killing of the cat.

This was an act of horrific and illegal cruelty, and justice must be served. Please join Alley Cat Allies in demanding immediate criminal charges against Lizzy Long, Mayor McCombs, and the cat’s owner.
