Six-Month Old Puppy Killed By Assistant Fire Chief In Riverside Los Angeles Assistant Fire Chief Glynn Johnson has been placed on administrative leave following his fatal beating of a neighbor's 6-month old dog. Read about this case in the Los Angeles Times here.

Johnson remains un-arrested, in his Riverside County home on paid administrative leave while the brutal beating of his neighbor's 6-month-old puppy, Karley - which resulted in a crushed skull, dislocated eye, broken jaw, and broken nose - is being investigated.

The puppy had to be euthanized because of the degree of her suffering and the fact that she sustained permanent brain damage. The accused is claiming "self-defense" for his actions.

 

Some Los Angeles-area activists have scheduled a demonstration in front Mr. Johnson's home this Saturday, November 15, 2008 at 2:00 P.M.
