More than 100 birds were removed from a Brown County home Wednesday morning after a months-long investigation into a potential cockfighting ring.  The Indiana Gaming Commission assisted in serving two search warrants -- one in the 9000 block of Grandview Road, the other at 1100 Jonesville Road. The investigation has been going on since October 2017 after detectives were given a "derby sheet" that listed the entire cockfighting season with dates, registration fees and potential payouts, a spokesperson from the Indiana Gaming Commission said.
