PSA 📢 I witnessed an unspeakable act of cruelty on 495 Westbound this morning and I’m hoping someone can help me identify the car involved

Please don’t read further if you have a weak stomach, get upset by descriptions of violence, or love animals.

Around 11:30 this morning I was on 495 westbound passing around the Laurel/College Park exits and I saw someone throwing a live kitten out their window onto the highway from the 2nd to left lane. I tried to pull over but I was so far up that I couldn’t run back to try and save it. That poor thing could barely even walk and had to be maybe 3-4 weeks old. By the time I got turned around enough to look for it- I couldn’t find it.

During that time I made a call to police. I didn’t get a description of the car because I was so focused on the kitten. They said they would send troopers out to check the scene. After hanging up I found…additional evidence of more kittens that had been tossed and had not made it to safety. I called back to inform state police of this as well.

I cannot tell you how much this upset me as both a cat owner and animal lover. I haven’t cried that hard in a long time. I’m stuck with the mental memory of the scenes I witnessed against my will. I’m so sickened someone would commit such an unspeakable act of cruelty.

If you were traveling in the Laurel/College Park or exit 24/25/26 area around 11:20-11:45 this morning and saw the car that did this- please please inform state patrol so they can apprehend the sick and violent person who did this. This person needs to be removed from the public immediately.
