On August 29, 2018, Fort Collins Police responded to a report of animal cruelty in a residence. Police contacted Bryan Hackleman (DOB 03/25/94) at his home on Stanford Road. Through the course of the investigation, officers located a deceased cat with injuries consistent with abuse. Hackleman was arrested for animal cruelty and booked into the Larimer County Jail.
