A 34-year-old transient with a criminal record has been booked on suspicion of kicking a small dog, as seen on video, and police are asking for the public’s help in finding the dog.
Joseph Michael Sanders was arrested around 6:30 p.m. Thursday, Anaheim Police Department Sgt. Jon McClintock said. Sanders was seen kicking the dog on April 7, near Brookhurst Street and the 5 Freeway, police said.
McClintock thanked the public for tips, and added that police were still looking for the dog. If anyone knows where the dog is they are asked to call police at 714-765-1900.
Sanders has a lengthy history of arrests and convictions for burglary, vandalism, receiving stolen property, robbery, and domestic violence, probation officials said in court records.
In his most recent case, he pleaded guilty in February 2023 to carrying a loaded unregistered gun in public, a felony, and misdemeanor resisting arrest. Sanders was placed on two years of formal probation and sentenced to 45 days in jail and sentenced to 60 days in jail in June 2023 for violating probation and another 90 days in jail in February 2024 for another probation violation, according to court records.
In a probation violation petition filed in September, officials said Sanders had failed to report again.
