A Nigerian migrant was arrested by Italian police after he was caught killing a cat and attempting to cook it on an improvised grill in a public park right next to a children’s playground.
The incident occurred on Tuesday afternoon in Crociata Park (Parco della Crociata) in Sarzana, in the province of La Spezia, south of Genoa.
Local residents who witnessed the scene immediately called the Carabinieri and State Police.
Officers arrived to find the man, described as shoeless, roasting the freshly killed cat on a grate placed over an open fire.
