Florida Driver Tracked Down

According to Crane, some residents chased down the truck which made the Florida driver get out and throw the dog in the back before driving away again. This horrifying incident was apparently caught on the residents’ security cameras.

Todd Tyler, one of the residents, stated that he could not get the image of the scene out of his head. He allegedly saw bloody paw prints which was what really traumatized him the most. However, Animal Control Officer Colby Mazzoni of Charlotte County stated that they are still not certain whether the Florida driver did the incident on purpose.

Nonetheless. the non-profit organization will still be treating the incident as a cruelty case. As of June 12, however, it is still not certain whether the Florida driver had already been arrested.
