Residents Blame Mayor for Dog Poisoning

By Carrie Pond

Hickman, KY – Residents whose dogs were poisoned in a Hickman neighborhood are blaming the town mayor for supplying the poison. The group of around a dozen pet owners made their accusations during last night's Hickman City Commission meeting. Mayor Charles Murphy denies the charges and says it's just gossip that has gotten out of hand. The mayor has offered to take a lie detector test if the group will pay for it. The Hickman police department is investigating the case but no witnesses have come forward.
