BURLINGTON TOWNSHIP – A woman relinquished 13 of 15 horses in her care after a state investigator issued a humane care violation against her, officials said.

Angela Beers, who was based at Flanery Farms, on the 47W200 block of Ramm Road, Burlington Township near Maple Park, was cited Oct. 15, three days after receiving a complaint of neglect of horses, said Jeff Squibb, spokesman for the Illinois Department of Agriculture.

Beers could not be reached for comment. Gerry Ellerbee, owner of Flanery Farms, where Beers rented space to live and board her horses, said Beers and the horses are gone and he does not know where she went.
