- Texas, USA -
The Bexar County Sheriff’s Office announced the arrest of 45-years-old WHITNEY FITZ-JOHN DAVIS (pictured).
In a media release, the sheriff’s office said that on January 4, 2024, deputies responded to a residence in the 13000 block of Tramonto Hill located in West Bexar County after they were alerted to multiple dogs at the location being malnourished.
When Patrol Deputies and the sheriff’s office Special Enforcement Unit arrived, they found five dogs who “appeared to be severely malnourished”, stated the release.
While walking around the residence, officials found it hard to breathe due to the strong odor of animal feces and ammonia throughout the residence that could be smelled from outside.
According to the release, DAVIS surrendered the dogs and they were immediately rushed to an animal hospital to be examined and treated.
DAVIS was placed under arrest and booked into the Bexar County Jail on cruelty to non-livestock animals charged.
Court records show that his arraignment is scheduled to take place on February 6, 2024.
Bexar County Sheriff Javier Salazar said: “Animal Cruelty crimes are often linked to other crimes like domestic violence and even human trafficking. Please help us put a stop to the mistreatment of animals. Call us at (210) - 335 - GANG to report animal abuse.”
