Animal Cruelty in Cascade

This is a horrible story.

From TMJ 4:

It’s a disgusting crime. Someone stole a dog and killed it in a city park.

It was a despicable crime. Sheriff's deputies say someone kidnapped a resident's dog, brought it to a park and hung it from a swing.

Smoky, a German shepherd mix, vanished from this home after his owner let him out.

Hours later, workers at a nearby park found Smoky. The dog had been hanged by his collar from a swing until he suffocated.

...Scratches on the ground showed Smoky struggled for minutes before finally suffocating.

"No one should do this to an animal. The dog did nothing wrong,” Sheboygan County Sheriff’s Captain David Adams said.

The suspect also slashed the tires of someone at the home. Police are asking the public for information.

...Sheriff's deputies say they do have a person of interest they are speaking with. They have not made any arrests. They do believe this person knows the dog's owner.

It sounds like this "person of interest" had a major problem with the dog's owner.

I don't know how anyone could be so heartless to make an animal suffer like that. It's so violent and cruel.

It's sick beyond words.
