PETA is offering a $5,000 reward to find the man seen viciously yanking a dog by its collar before slamming it onto the ground in a Long Beach alley.
Surveillance cameras captured the man pulling a dog through the alley. The suspect only allowed the dog to use its hind legs to hop through the alley, suspending its forelimbs in the air. The man then used the dog’s leash to flip it over his shoulder and slammed the animal to the ground. After the violent move, the dog stayed on the ground until the suspect yanked it onto its feet.
