On May 9, 2023, Syniah Percell, a 25-year-old citizen of Marietta, Georgia, turned herself in to the Newark Police Department.
Percell was charged with felony Cruelty to Animals in connection to an occurrence including a Yorkie dog that had actually sustained extreme injuries and consequently passed away, according to Lt. Andrew Rubin of the Newark Police Department.
Rubin said the department received a report of a hurt dog simply after 3:00 pm on April 28, 2023. Officers right away reacted to a home in the 100-block of Thorn Lane, where they discovered the hurt Yorkie dog. Upon examining the matter, the authorities found that the house citizen had actually left the dog under the care of a friend, Syniah Percell, while they were out said Rubin.
When the resident returned, they discovered that their animal was acting oddly, walking unusually, and had a swelling on its body. Concerned about their animal’s wellness, they right away took it to a vet. Unfortunately, the dog’s injuries were extreme, and in spite of the very best efforts of the vet, it later on caught its injuries.
On April 29, 2023, an arrest warrant was provided by Justice of the Peace Court #11 charging Percell with one count of felony Cruelty to Animals. She was consequently detained and launched on her own recognizance after appearing in the past Justice of the Peace Court #2 through video.
