A dog was killed in a Thompson home invasion Monday afternoon.
RCMP said three men forced their way into a home on Ash Street around 1:05 p.m. after the homeowner refused to let them in.
The three occupants – two adults and a child – were able to escape through a back door and call police.
Cops found an injured dog in the back yard after the suspects had fled. The dog was taken to a veterinarian for urgent care, but died of its injuries.
Police are seeking a young man, around 6’0″ and 200 lbs, wearing a grey toque with a red stripe, a grey jacket and winter boots, as well as two other men dressed in dark clothing.
One of the men has a teardrop tattoo on his face.
