‘Disturbing' video shows SUV driver targeting geese on Long Island, SPCA says

Someone appears to be intentionally mowing down geese on Long Island — and the Suffolk County SPCA says the reward being offered in the case is now up to $7,500.

Animal advocates say there have been “multiple disturbing incidents” in Happauge this month.

Each of them has happened at night, generally between 9 p.m. and 10 p.m., on the same street: Wireless Boulevard, a stretch that appears heavily populated with offices and warehouses.

The Suffolk County SPCA says the first incident happened April 4. The next one, on April 15, was caught on video. The SPCA says it shows what appears to be a white Jeep Grand Cherokee deliberately striking multiple geese in the same area. Also on that date, two other geese were hit on the boulevard about a half-mile away.

There may be more incidents.

The SPCA says the driver appears to return to the area and slow down when observing geese, suggesting intentional and repeated acts of cruelty. Multiple organizations are contributing to the reward.

Anyone with information is asked to call the Suffolk County SPCA at 631-382-7722
