- Virginia, USA -


The Waynesboro Police Department announced the arrest of 31-year-old REUBEN MICHAEL SILVER (pictured).


Police said in a press release that on the early morning of November 9, 2024, officers responded to the 1500 block of C Street after receiving reports about 10-15 dogs running at large in the area.


Officers were able to determine that the dogs were linked to a residence in the 1500 block of Third Street and later on the same morning executed a search warrant.


From the residence, officers removed fourteen dogs of various breeds and took them “to a temporary holding facility, where they received necessary medical treatment”, stated the release.

In connection with this case, officers arrested SILVER and booked him into the Middle River Regional Jail.


He was charged with fourteen misdemeanor counts of cruelty to animals, fourteen misdemeanor counts of no city dog license, fourteen misdemeanor counts of vaccination violations, fourteen misdemeanor counts of control and restraint of dogs, and fourteen misdemeanor counts of sanitation of dog pens.

SILVER was released after posting bond.


I reached out to the Waynesboro Police Department to request additional information about the Voiceless Victims and in an email Captain Jamie Dunn responded: “The information that was provided in the media release is all of the information that is being release[d] at this time since this case has not been adjudicated in court.
