ANAHEIM (CNS) - A 63-year-old man was booked on suspicion of animal cruelty for allegedly abusing a dog in Anaheim, police said Thursday.

Maynard Allen was arrested Wednesday in Los Angeles and was released from the Anaheim jail when he posted $100,000 bail, said Anaheim police Sgt. Jon McClintock.

Police were dispatched to the 1400 block of South Sunkist Street for a report of a man abusing a dog, McClintock said. Part of the alleged abuse was videotaped and shared on social media, the sergeant added.

The terrier mix canine was seized on Sunday, taken to a local animal hospital and was being cared for by OC Animal Care, McClintock said.
