Teen allegedly filmed rat torture

Teen allegedly filmed rat torture

The RSPCA is hopeful charges will soon be laid against a Perth teenager who uploaded footage to social media of caged rats being tortured.

The RSPCA is working with police in the investigation after video showing rats being burnt, stabbed and drowned made its way onto Facebook.

A spokeswoman from the RSPCA said the footage was very disturbing.

The general public was not willing to accept cruelty against animals, she said.
