The abuse cases just keep piling up in Philadelphia; the latest Friday morning involving a dog who had lost a limb in a fight and was then thrown off a railroad bridge by its owner.
The local SPCA director of law enforcement, George Bengal says it's hard to tell if more animals are being abused or if more people are now reporting cruelty:
“I've been doing this job for 18 years and I’ve never seen the amount of starved to death dogs or fighting dogs that have been killed in various locations around the city.”
He says abusing animals is a crime and those responsible are arrested.
