The incident occurred at the beginning of February. As reported by the website lwowecki.info:

Officers from the Police Station in Leśna received a report about the killing of a hen. The report was filed by one of the residents of Lubań County. As subcommissioner Artur Świątkiewicz of the Lubań police tells us, the incident itself took place several days earlier.

The police treated the matter very seriously. As the Lwówek-based outlet notes:

The hen’s carcass has been secured. A veterinarian is to perform an autopsy, which will determine the cause of the animal’s death.

Let us recall that animal cruelty involving particular brutality may be punishable by up to five years in prison. We will return to this topic.
