Accused Dog Killer Headed To Court

A New Milford man who was arrested last month for aggravated animal cruelty after allegedly killing and dismembering a purebred English bulldog will soon face a judge. Authorities say 39-year-old Benjamin Tyler strangled the dog and disposed of its remains in multiple dumpsters. Tyler has been free until now, on his own recognizance, but he will return to court on January 21 for further proceedings.
