MINK RELEASED IN KAYSVILLE...



(KSL News) The FBI and the Davis County Sheriff's Office are investigating an incident at a mink farm overnight.

Thousands of mink were on the loose after vandals broke into a Kaysville farm and opened the pens near Sharpshooter Drive and Fox Hunter Drive.

People in the area have been catching mink all morning. Fellow mink farmer Ryan Holt said they caught nearly 90 percent of the mink by midday.

No one has claimed responsibility for letting the mink go. Investigators haven't said if this related to a similar incident in South Jordan last month.

Fur Commission USA is offering a reward of up to $100,000 for information leading to conviction in any mink release.
