Sacramento police are investigating the incident at a butcher shop owed by a family of Chinese descent as a possible bias or hate-related crime.

An incident involving a man leaving a box containing a mutilated cat carcass outside an Asian family-run butcher shop in Sacramento is being investigated as a possible hate crime, authorities said.

Caught on video surveillance tape, the incident occurred Monday evening outside the Mad Butcher Meat Co., whose owners are of Chinese descent, according to the police department, which is investigating the incident as a possible bias or hate-related crime. “Not only was an animal violently abused, but it was used to threaten and provoke fear at an Asian American owned business in Sacramento,” said Councilwoman Mai Vang. “Our city has committed to racial equity and justice — which means confronting the perpetrators of hate and acknowledging the trauma and suffering experienced by victims.”

The owners of the Mad Butcher Meat Co. posted on the shop’s social media page that they were “shaken and especially disappointed” by the incident. “It is impossible for us to fully discuss this incident without feeling an overwhelming amount of emotion.”The shop — owned by Michael and Diana Shum family for more than 30 years — thanked the community for the “calls, hugs, support, and community organizing” in a social media post Wednesday. “We are very blessed to have you guys as our family.
