Alleged Dog Abuser To Be In Court Thursday

Video will be available shortly

It's called one of the worst cases of animal cruelty police in Pulaski County have seen. Police have now released photographs some may find disturbing.

Investigators say the pictures taken from a neighbor's video camera show 30-year-old Ronald Turner beating his dog.

He's then accused of slamming a dog house on top of the dog. The puppy, named "Romeo" is now recovering at an animal shelter.

Turner has been charged with animal cruelty. He'll be in court Thursday.
