On February 10, 2019 in Richmond, Virginia,
a dog was tied to a pole in Abner Clay Park,
doused with an accelerant and set on fire. Only the quick action of the Richmond Fire Department saved his life, and now Tommie faces a long recovery at the Richmond Animal Care and Control (RACC) Shelter
with burns to over 40% of his body. An adult male wearing multiple layers of clothing was seen running from the scene. Anyone with ANY information on this sickening crime against a helpless animal is urged to contact Richmond Crime Stoppers at 804-788-1000.
