- New York, USA -
On Monday, February 20, New York State Police in Hastings arrested 38-years-old BRYON D. PHILLIPS, from West Monroe, for aggravated cruelty to animals, a class E felony.
In a press release, police said that the arrest follows an investigation launched on February 10, 2023, “when Troopers were requested to assist Oswego County Probation Officers at a residence on Potter Road in West Monroe for an unrelated complaint.”
While at the property, Trooper Kylie Black found a male chocolate Labrador, named Chance, approximately 6 or 7 years old, in a back addition to the residence, separate from the house.
Police said that Chance was found to be severely emaciated, he did not have any access to food or water, and it appeared that he had not been let outside in months as “there were feces and urine throughout the room.”
State Police immediately removed the voiceless victim and “with the generosity of the Highland Animal Hospital in Central Square, was treated for various medical issues.”
Chance is currently about 30 pounds underweight, but the good news is that with the assistance of the Veterinary Office and Dawn of a New Day Animal Rescue, he is expected to fully recover and adopted into his furever home.
PHILLIPS was issued an appearance ticket and is scheduled to appear in Oswego County CAP court on March 1, 2023.
