TIMES WIRE REPORTS

Two unemployed, hungry men stole a calf from a neighbor’s barn, shot it with an arrow, slit its throat and roasted it, police said.

David Lochner, 21, and Timothy Welch, 18, were camping outside Palmyra, 20 miles southeast of Rochester, several weeks ago when a dairy farmer reported his calf missing, said police. The two were arrested and arraigned Wednesday on burglary charges. Police said more charges are pending, including cruelty to animals.
