LAS VEGAS (AP) — Authorities say they've removed hundreds of animals from a Las Vegas home where they were kept in "deplorable conditions."

Police say they came to the home after neighbors saw a horse running loose in a northeast Las Vegas neighborhood on Sunday morning.

Lt. Grant Rogers told KVVU-TV Fox5 that animal control officers picked up the horse in a trailer and went to the owner's house. They found hundreds of animals living in "deplorable conditions."
