A dog fighting investigation has led to the arrest of 18 people in Churubusco.
Last night Whitley County police raided the home of 36 year old Edward E. Smith after they received a tip of a dog fighting contest at his house.
Inside the garage, police found a bloody and injured pit bull type dog inside a fighting ring constructed of plywood.
Two other dogs were found inside the house. One was another injured and bloody pit bull type dog. The other was a younger dog that had no injuries. All three dogs were taken by the Whitley County Humane Shelter.
All 18 people are charged with a Class A misdemeanor of attending an animal fighting contest.
