A woman has been arrested after a shocking video showed a small dog being thrown over a fence in Anaheim<\/a>.<\/p>\n

According to the Anaheim Police Department, 30-year-old Tyler Thompson was arrested and charged with felony animal cruelty.<\/p>\n

Surveillance video shared by the University Veterinary Center on Glenoaks Avenue<\/a> shows the dog inside a plastic bag being tossed over a fence, landing in the backyard area of the clinic early in the morning on Wednesday, Nov. 12.<\/p>\n

The dog was found seriously injured by the veterinarian later that morning.<\/p>\n

“I can’t find words to describe why anybody would do something like that, and it’s hard to find the right words,” said Dr. Ash Hakhamian. “I mean, thrown is an understatement. He sustained mental trauma, even far beyond his physical trauma.”<\/p>\n

Hakhamian was surprised when he discovered the dog in the back of his clinic. At first, he didn’t know how the dog ended up there.<\/p>\n

“We decided to review the security camera footage, and to our disappointment, we found the pet was placed there by being thrown over the fence,” he told Eyewitness News.<\/p>\n

“He face-planted,” Hakhamian added. “That’s what broke his fall, was his face.”<\/p>\n

In addition to the trauma and severe bruising, Hakhamian said the dog was severely anemic, malnourished and was covered in fleas.<\/p>\n

“His nails are so long, they have curled and gone back into his paw,” Hakhamian said. “That’s a type of neglect that precedes this trauma, it precedes this abuse.”<\/p>\n

The clinic said that due to the nature of the situation, the dog was “receiving around-the-clock care to ensure he is recovering from both his injuries and ongoing medical needs.”<\/p>\n

The police department did not have an update on the dog’s condition when the arrest was announced on Wednesday.<\/p>\n

“There is going to be a lot of medical care and other things involved before he is going to be made available to the public for adoption and\/or foster care,” the clinic said in a statement.<\/p>\n

After reviewing the surveillance video, the veterinarian’s office thought the woman responsible came from the apartment building across the street.<\/p>\n

Police confirmed that’s where she was found on Thursday, Nov. 13. She was questioned but not immediately arrested as police discussed the case with the Orange County District Attorney’s Office.<\/p>\n

The department later announced Thompson’s arrest and charge two weeks later.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A woman has been arrested after a shocking video showed a small dog being thrown over a fence…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":73150,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[36],"tags":[163,165,164,33179,2899,33685,42871,1388,41925,33178],"class_list":{"0":"post-73149","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-anaheim","8":"tag-anaheim","9":"tag-anaheim-headlines","10":"tag-anaheim-news","11":"tag-ash-hakhamian","12":"tag-dog","13":"tag-mental-trauma","14":"tag-shocking-video","15":"tag-surveillance-video","16":"tag-tyler-thompson","17":"tag-university-veterinary-center"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/73149","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=73149"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/73149\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/73150"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=73149"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=73149"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=73149"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
