Two people were arrested after police found more than 50 dead cats in and around a Lawrenceville home.
Marcia DiNardo and Thomas Crory are charged with more than 30 counts of cruelty to animals from a previous case.
Police said they found dozens of dead cats Friday while they were executing a search warrant at the 45th Street home. The cats were found in boxes, trash cans and coffee cans.
In April, police removed more than 40 cats from the home.
