A 16-year-old Delhi boy has been arrested for animal cruelty for the brutal torture and death of a pig from the Delhi High School FFA farm, said Merced County Sheriff Vern Warnke. The pig was found Sunday morning by a student who had come to the farm to feed her own animal. The pig, which was approximately 125 pounds, had been hung by a rope in the tree, set on fire and stabbed.
