Hundreds of dogs and cats were found in a home in Lake Hughes Friday morning, in what officials called the largest animal rescue in the county, and possibly the country, ever.
The cats and dogs were found as a part of a morning search warrant served by Los Angeles County Department of Animal Care and Control Friday morning.
When workers arrived at the 46000 block of 266th Street, they estimated about 700 animals were in the property.
The search warrant was conducted with investigators with the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s office, officials said in a social media post.
