A woman in California was charged with animal abuse after
surveillance video caught her allegedly dragging a dog while she
rode on an electric scooter.
Elaine Rosa allegedly dragged the small animal by its leash
through a Bakersfield neighborhood on Jan. 6. A passerby,
Brandon Sanders, took to Facebook to detail what he said he
witnessed while riding his bike in the area.

SCOOTER
"The dog was on its side and we watched it being drug at least
100 yards and there’s no telling how long she had been dragging
it for before we saw her," Sanders wrote, adding the dog was
being pulled at roughly 15 mph.
"You can see that its paws are all completely bloody," he
continued. "I was unable to get a good picture of the poor dogs
side."

Sanders said he called the Bakersfield Police Department, and
followed Rosa back to her apartment. He claimed he told her,
"Shit happens, just like with kids," in response to the alleged
incident.
Rosa was identified as the woman in the video in a press release
from the Kern County District Attorney's Office. She was charged
with one felony count of animal abuse and one misdemeanor count
of failing to provide animal care for her alleged role in the
case.
