In a press release on Wednesday, October 30, the DeKalb County District Attorney’s Office have asked the public’s help to help identify the man.
The press release reveals more information about the man and the incident that happened on Friday, September 13.
“Surveillance camera video showed a man pull into the parking lot of the Redan Recreation Center on Phillips Road in Lithonia dragging two dogs behind his vehicle,” investigators reveal.

A witness called the police after seeing the dogs in the parking lot. The officer who responded to the scene discovered the two dogs with ropes tied around their necks.
The press release reveals, “One of the dogs—a medium-sized, black, mixed breed male between one and seven years old—was deceased.”
