Dog thrown down trash chute at NY housing complex: police

MANHATTAN, N.Y. (WPIX) — Police are looking for the person who threw a dog down a trash chute at a New York City housing complex and left it trapped and severely injured.

“That’s cold-hearted; I am about to cry," said a resident identified only as Cicely as she looked at a picture of a dog that was tossed down the garbage chute of her high-rise building in Lower Manhattan.

“They need to find out who did it. If they lock these doors downstairs, these things won’t happen, and they won't lock the chutes,” she added.
