FORT PIERCE — Police found seagulls with ropes around their necks along with decayed fish and toys hanging from two palm trees in the 800 block of South Indian River Drive, a recently released report said.

Seagulls were hanging from one tree and items described as “miscellaneous toys” had been placed above the birds.

On the other tree, police found assorted toys, sandals, about nine decayed fish and two seagulls with ropes around their necks.

An anonymous call brought police on Monday to the odd scene, which is on the east side of Indian River Drive near the river.

A witness said he saw “numerous animals” hanging from one of the trees about a month earlier.

An animal control officer removed the animals and police took the sandals and toys into evidence.
