    More than 20 people were arrested Friday night, as Indianapolis police broke up a dog-fighting ring on the city's Westside.

    When officers executed a search warrant at about 10:30 p.m., the individuals were attending a dog-fighting contest in an arena inside a home in the 3000 block of West 16th Street, according to a report from the Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department.


    The following individuals were arrested and charged with attendance at an animal-fighting contest, a Class A misdemeanor: Sammy Lee, 26; Tiffany Allen, 34; Lesley Anthony, 31; Alice Lee, 24; Lamont Grant, 42; JaJuan Jones, 31; Maurice Ervin, 31; Charles Richardson, 30; Bobby Johnson, 30; Jermaine Perry, 35; Joseph McClendon, 37; Michael Brown, 38; Shinitara Kemp, 24; Tyrus Williams, 26; Edward Matthews, 40; John Adams, 33; Alonzo Smiley, 39; Corey McClendon, 40; Anthony Pippins, 32; all of Indianapolis; Gregory Jefferson, 44, and Jermine Dorsey, 37, both of Louisville, Ky.; Willie Thomas, 31, Milwaukee, Wis.; and an unidentified 17-year-old male from Indianapolis.

    Animal Care and Control officials also removed nine pit bulls from inside and outside of the residence.

    Suspected narcotics as well as firearms, money and dog-fighting items were also seized from the residence, the report said.

    IMPD also was assisted by the officials from the U.S. Department of Agriculture and the Marion County Sheriff's Department.

    23 Arrested In Dogfighting Ring

    INDIANAPOLIS -- Indianapolis police have arrested 23 people in a suspected dogfighting ring, the largest veteran Indianapolis police officers can remember.

    The arrests were made late Friday night and early Saturday morning after a search warrant was obtained for a home in the 3000 block of West 60th Street, on Indianapolis' northwest side, 6News' Rick Hightower reported.


    Slideshow: Inside Dog Fighting Raid


    When officers went into the home, a fight was taking place, Lt. Jeff Duhamell said. Most of the arrests happened at about midnight.


    Nine pit bulls were removed from inside and outside the home, along with drugs, money, guns and fighting equipment, police said.


    All of those arrested, including men, women and one juvenile, were preliminarily charged with attending an animal fighting contest.


    "They have that many arrests and have a location that is ... very sophisticated as far as what they were doing, the actual pit itself," said Indianapolis police Lt. Jeff Duhamell. "Our SWAT team hit it right about 10:30, and when they made entry, the actual fights were going on, which is, in itself, very rare."


    The home was equipped as a training area for the animals, complete with treadmills and steroids, police said.


    Investigators with the U.S. Department of Agriculture and Animal Care and Control were also involved in the raid.

    people, by and large, are stupid-and have a difficult time learning as evident by the brazenness of the folks busted in situations such as these.
    how many things were wrong in this situation? lets play shall we? who can spot the glaring problems?

    What wrong is they had a search warrant and raided the house while the fight was in progress so someone has a big mouth and let the location of the event out letting them the police know when to raid them or there is a rat in the group that got raided.:confused:

    Apparently the OWNERS didn't think they were so great to be risking them this way. They KNOW what happens to Pit Bulls that are confiscated in situations like this and THEY DON'T CARE what happens to the DOGS!
