A 27-year-old Sandy Springs man who allegedly grabbed his wife's Pomeranian and beat her with the dog was in the Fulton County jail Wednesday facing felony animal cruelty and other charges,
Channel 2 Action News reported.
The man's wife also has been arrested and charged with interfering with the police investigation, authorities said. The dog did not survive.
It is probably one of the worst cases of animal cruelty that we've ever seen, Capt. Steve Rose, spokesman for the Sandy Springs Police Department, told Channel 2.
