Police say they were called on Thursday, May 17 by a concerned citizen who saw a man punching and kicking a dog outside a home in the area of Clarke Rd. and Wavell St. The attack was captured on surveillance video.
"Police began investigating and video of the incident has been located," a police spokesperson said in an email to BlackburnNewsLondon.com. "The dog has been located and is uninjured. The dog is currently with the owner."
