Cruelty to hamster captured on a cameraphone
The BBC reports on one of the stranger stories to come along related to a cruel incident filmed by youngsters with a cameraphone.
"Police have condemned youths in Glasgow who killed a hamster by tying it to a firework and setting it off. Officers believe the incident, which was recorded on a video phone, happened in the Possilpark area of the city recently.
... During the video clip, one of the youths could be heard saying: "I'll hold it and someone else tape it." Another youth urged a friend to put his phone on record mode so the prank could be saved.
After attaching the animal to the firework, one said "leave it like that, that's it", and another asked for a lighter before they set it off.
The youngsters were then heard laughing after the firework shot into the air and exploded. "
