A Baltimore man has been charged with animal cruelty after police said he killed four puppies and threw them in the trash.
Donald Yearwood, 21, is charged with 17 counts of animal cruelty and animal abuse, according to Baltimore Police.
Baltimore Police said they were called to Yearwood’s home in the 3700 block of 10th Street in Brooklyn on Nov. 9 after people said they saw him kill four puppies.
Police couldn’t find Yearwood or the puppies, but police officers and animal control officers were called back a few hours later when children found the puppies in a Dumpster.
