Dognapper demands $10,000 ransom
Danish beagle threatened with death if orders not met
COPENHAGEN, Denmark, July 29 — A dognapper in Denmark said he will kill a 13-year-old beagle and send his owners a videotape of the dastardly act if his ransom demand for $10,000 is not met, police said Tuesday.
“SKIPPER,” WHO is so infirm his owners had recently begun taking him out for his perambulations in a child’s stroller, was reported missing Wednesday.
“Since then the couple has spoken to the blackmailer four or five times, but we have advised them not to answer the phone anymore,” said a police officer in the small town of Bogense on the island of Fuen in central Denmark.
The small brown and black dog’s abductor has not given a final deadline for payment of the ransom. Police have advised his owners not to raise the money.
