Northern Territory Police have issued summonses to two people in relation to an incident at a cattle station in the Victoria River District last month.

The station management reported that 30 of their horses had been shot and killed on 19 September 2020.

A 38-year-old man and a 40-year-old man, both from Darwin, have each received a summons to attend Katherine Local Court on 9 November for property offences and animal cruelty offences under the Animal Welfare Act.
