A 72-year-old man has been arrested after he mutilated and killed his dog.

Superintendent Priscilla Naidu of Eastern Cape police yesterday said the dismembered carcass of the dog was found hung up on a fence. The intestines were found in a bag.

"The dog's head was found hanging on a gate," she said.

The man from KwaNobuhle claimed the mongrel was having a seizure and he wanted to see what was wrong, so he cut the dog open. - Sapa
