A Florida man allegedly threw a 3-year-old chihuahua named Raven from a third-story balcony following an argument with the dog’s owner.
Deputies with the Lee County Sheriff’s Office responded around 6:45 a.m. Sunday to Blue Pearl Animal Hospital in Fort Myers when a dog owner had a verbal altercation with a veterinarian at the facility while dropping off Raven. The dog had an open fracture to her left front leg, abrasions to her chest and a broken jaw. The owner told staff that he got into an altercation with an “unknown male” who proceeded to throw the dog off the balcony “like a football,” a probable cause arrest affidavit said.
