Man leaves Halifax Chihuahua badly injured after throwing sign
A passerby allegedly threw a sign at a barking Chihuahua, shattering the small dog’s jaw and causing her to lose an eye.
Police say a 36-year-old Halifax man was walking his own large dog on Davison Street on Monday evening when he passed the barking Chihuahua’s house.
Investigators say the man picked up a small wooden sign and threw it, striking the dog and causing life-threatening injuries.
Police say the owner of the injured dog came out and confronted the man, at which point the suspect threw another sign at the owner, who was not injured.
