Man Stabs Lost Dog Multiple Times

A chilling tale from Portage, Indiana: 38-year-old Tony Hughes is facing multiple felonies after allegedly stabbing a lost two-year-old husky named Shadow multiple times — leaving the dog dead and sparking outrage. Authorities found homemade knives and marijuana on him, while his claim the dog bit him lacked evidence — no bite marks, no damage to his clothes. Witnesses say they heard the dog crying and saw Hughes stab it, and the dog was reportedly calm and tied up, not aggressive. Hughes also faces theft charges for failing to try to find the dog’s owners. The dog was euthanized after suffering 10 stab wounds. Neighbors rallied after the incident, and Hughes’ bond is set at $3,000 with court next Thursday. A heartbreaking loss for the dog — and a shocking escalation for the man behind the blade.
