Police are investigating a violent case of animal cruelty they say involved a deadly attack on a chained up black Labrador in Elliott.

Authorities say the dog's owner, 40-year-old Brian Scott, will likely face charges including, animal cruelty and disorderly conduct.

According to police, Scott said he was angry because the dog allegedly kept escaping from his home and attacking a mail carrier.

Police report that the dog, which was chained to the house at the time of the attack, was repeatedly stabbed with a samurai sword.

Neighbors said that they tried to help the dog after the attack.

The animal was taken to a Robinson Township veterinary hospital where it died from its injuries.

Police say the dog had wounds up to 13 inches deep.
