A cat thrown from a moving vehicle on a Pittsburgh-area highway did not survive.
Now, Pennsylvania State Police are looking for anyone who may have dashcam video that could help them find the person responsible.
It happened Wednesday evening around 6:15 p.m. on Interstate 70 eastbound near the Pittsburgh bend that connects to Interstate 79 north.
Jeralyn Biancaniello was just a couple of cars behind when she saw the cat thrown from the vehicle.
She pulled over and ran to help.
Biancaniello volunteers at an animal shelter in Greene County and keeps an animal carrier in her car so she is ready to help an animal in need.
She said the cat was badly injured. His back legs were not working, and he was crawling with his front paws.
She rushed him to Pet Search, a Washington County animal rescue and shelter, but he did not survive. Humane workers at Pet Search say he was not chipped.
Biancaniello and a friend named him Mr. Bibbs.
She said they did not want him to be just another animal. They wanted him to have a name.
State police are investigating.
Anyone who was driving on Interstate 70 eastbound near the Interstate 79 north interchange around 6:15 p.m. Wednesday and may have dashcam video is asked to contact police.
