A foal is fighting for its life after inflammable liquid was thrown on its face and set on fire.

The animal suffered serious burns to his nose, face and front legs and is being treated by a vet.

Police said the attack in Pinxton, Derbyshire, took place between August 17-19.

The foal was in a field off Alexander Terrace near a water treatment plant, along with two other foals and some horses, officers said.

He's fighting for his life and I'm appealing for help to catch whoever did this to the defenceless animal.

Sickening. Hope the culprits are caught.

Sad to hear, what a cruel thing to do.

Surely though the article should say 'flammable' liquid as if it was inflammable you wouldnt be able to set fire to it.

Evil evil people. Once they have been caught send them on a one way ticket to Afghanistan (Parachute them in).

I agree - evil evil people.

But does anyone else not understand the "Police said the attack in Pinxton, Derbyshire, took place between August 17-19" statement... how did nobody see to that foal for 2 days?!
