Authorities responded to a 911 call reporting the incident and found Mileskiewicz hiding in the backyard. The dog sustained non-life-threatening injuries.
A Florida woman was arrested on Sunday after allegedly stabbing her boyfriend’s dog several times, later telling authorities she 'made a mistake,' according to law enforcement officials. The Hernando County Sheriff’s Office said 23-year-old Megan Lynn Mileskiewicz was arrested and charged with animal cruelty and resisting arrest. The sheriff’s office said that, at about 10:45 a.m.
After a brief search, deputies located Mileskiewicz hiding behind a tool shed in the backyard, face down on the ground and surrounded by shrubs. Deputies reportedly ordered the suspect to crawl out of the bushes, though she refused and was ultimately removed from the hiding spot and taken into custody. The sheriff’s office noted that the dog, a 2-year-old pit bull, sustained two lacerations between 2 and 3 inches long, near his backside.
Neither injury was life-threatening, the deputies noted, but the wounds were still bleeding. One witness reportedly told deputies that Mileskiewicz, without warning, became angry with the dog and armed herself with a pocketknife before attempting to stab the dog. After allegedly witnessing Mileskiewicz stabbing the dog repeatedly, the witness called 911. The sheriff’s office also said Mileskiewicz was read her Miranda Rights before she told investigators the dog was 'bothering' her. She also allegedly told investigators she became upset and 'made a mistake.'
