Animal Cruelty Complaint filed 11-19-21 by Shelter Leadership

 

Animal Shelter leadership reported criminal "cruelty to animals: torture" to the desk duty officer at San Angelo Police Department on Friday, November 19th at 4:31 pm.

The public was made aware of a mystery illness at the shelter the day before, November 18th.  The City and Concho Valley PAWS used Facebook and Twitter to share this news.  The public had numerous questions.  

Shelter veterinary service provider PAWS stated "we will share more as we know more" and "stay tuned for more information."

Twelve days after filing a police complaint on the matter the city informed the public that shelter dogs had been "exposed to an unknown substance."  That must be PR spin for "cruelty to animals:  torture", i.e. poisoning, that occurred on the city's watch.    

Update 1-10-22:  I spoke with the detective on the case today and learned no one has been charged with a crime to date for the November dog poisoning..
