There were approximately 25 horses in the outside pen area and another 10 horses in the pasture behind the facility. There were two white semis with single deck trailers parked in the side lot. Some of the horses had white auction tags still attached. Several of the horses were thin. The pen area appeared run down and no water or hay was visible.
