BOGOTA, Colombia (AP/The Blaze) — Soccer fans are crying fowl over kicking an owl. In fact, they’re crying a lot worse.

Panama defender Luis Moreno is facing sanctions after he kicked an injured owl that landed on the field during a game Sunday when his Colombian club Deportivo Pereira was playing Atletico Junior.

The owl is a mascot for Atletico Junior and was being treated Monday at a veterinary clinic in Barranquilla. The bird is expected to recover from a slight fracture of its right leg.

UPDATE: THE OWL HAS DIED!!

NewsCore) - BARANQUILLA, Colombia -- A Colombian soccer team's mascot owl died after being kicked by a rival player, Radio Santa Fe reported Tuesday. The bird landed on the field with an apparent broken wing during Sunday's game between Barranquilla's Atletico Junior and Deportivo Pereira. The visitors' Panamanian striker Luis Moreno kicked the owl off the field, provoking a furious reaction from the Baranquilla crowd, who considered the bird to be a good luck charm.

The owl had landed injured near the corner of the field when Moreno walked over and kicked it about three yards. Atletico Junior fans shouted “murder, murder.”

Moreno said he did not know the bird was a good-luck charm for the other team.

This was all over our radio news today, but I did not see it online. Horrid little man! Un hombre muy malo!!

Yeah, because everyone knows it's perfectly acceptable to kick an injured animal as long as it's not a good luck charm.

Jerk.

I can think of a better name!!

 :tickedoff:  :banghead:

Guess he doesn't know that you have to answer to a higher power when you leave this world!!!!!  :grumble: :death:

Indeed, MAK, indeed! 

I am horrified. That poor bird was on its back when he kicked it.   :o

I just don't get it, and I never will.  This is so sad.   :(

I'm still not right after watching this! I'm mortified! OH that poor Owl, he was suffering to begin with.

what a scum sucking dirt bag. If there were any justice I'd like to find the biggest baddest NFL player to kick him while he was laying on his back and see how he likes it then. :viking:

I read about this before I saw it here. The max fine he can get is equal to $26 that's it $26 its just not right. Poor Owl. I hate that man for his arrogance and inhumanity. I hope his career takes a nose dive and he trips over his own feet every time he tries to run and make a play.

UPDATE:

Newser) – Turns out that kicking an opposing team's mascot wasn't such a great idea: A Colombian soccer player who booted his opponents' lucky owl may face a fine and possibly even prison time after the creature died. The bird had wandered onto the field and been struck by a ball, at which point Panamanian Luis Moreno—whose team was losing 2-1—kicked the stunned bird off the pitch, the AP reports. It was taken to a vet, but died of shock two days later.

Moreno claims he was actually trying to help the owl. "I was not trying to hurt the owl," he said. "I did it to see if it would fly. What I wanted to do was get it off the field. The kick was a product of tension on the field at the time." He has been ordered to pay the vet's bill and do volunteer work at a zoo. Outraged fans are calling for Moreno to be prosecuted under Colombia's animal cruelty laws, which carry a maximum sentence of three months in prison.  Not punishment enough!!!

 :( It never is!  :(

"I would have shot it to see if it would fly, but I left my gun in my truck. So I had to haul off and kick it."

Kick em when their down! Pathetic!

I have completely had it with soccer players. They make millions per week and behave like they own the world. Well, not my world! Give me Irish Rugby any day. I hope this sorry little creep gets what he deserves. But of course... some judge will decide, like Officer Krupke, that he is "depraved because he's deprived". Right. This ole Sixties Liberal is getting less so with each passing day.

Kick that fool, Luis moreno.  It made the news here on 1180 WHAM, in Rochester, NY on the Bob Matthew's sports show tonight.    Bob mentioned the incident at least two or three times.   That poor owl suffered for at least 30 hours before it passed away..  according to Matthews.   And it was being cared for after that moron Luis moreno kicked it. 
What will Moreno's consequences be?  How else can outrage be registered against this heinous act?

How about having "I kill helpless animals" carved into his forehead?

 :yes: :goodone:

How about "I kill helpless animals" and "I am a stupid dirtbag" carved

Yeah baby, you got it! Carved, perfect.

:viking: and then lets make sure he can't procreate
