Would love to tie the **** to the back of my car. Would fill up with petrol and just keep driving till i have run out completely. Whatever is left of him would be dipped in varnish and left as a statue outside the rspca

Aren't you the bloke who said that no matter what someone had done (in this case Col Gaddafi) that dragging his body through the streets was just not on? I just want to clarify where the boundaries are. Is it that you can drag a live body through the streets until they are dead or is it that you can drag a body through the streets but it has to be tied to a car?

BREAKING NEWS Worthing man arrested for A27 animal cruelty

A 33-year-old Worthing man has been arrested on suspicion of animal cruelty after a dog was discovered dead at the side of the A27 on Sunday, November 20.

The man handed himself into Worthing Police Station last night (Monday, November 21) and remains in custody today (Tuesday, November 22).

Police were alerted to the dog's death after a witness reported seeing a car being driven at the Devils Dyke car park in Brighton dragging a dog behind it at around 10pm on Sunday.

The dog, a beagle collie cross, was then found in a lay-by on the A27 to the west of the Southwick Tunnel.

Anyone who witnessed the incident who has not yet spoken to police is asked to contact Sussex Police on 101 quoting serial 1416 of 20/11.

Whenever I see a report re driving, that the person responsible, 'hands' himself in 24 hours after the event, I wonder how much part drink or drugs played in this horrible story...?

Anyone who thinks a dog owner ties their dog to the bumper and then makes a second mistake by forgetting its there clearly doesn't own one....

Something very odd about all this. Devils Dyke car park at 10pm on a Sunday night? I'm not a dog owner, but do people normally walk their dog up there at that time of night? Particularly if they live in Worthing. Sounds like he maybe tied his dog to the bumper, went off to do something or other (no 'dogging' jokes please), got disturbed then had to scarper sharpish. And maybe, just maybe, he did forget the dog was there. Or was in such a rush to get out of there that he didn't care. Like I say, the whole thing is very odd.

I said dragging a dead body through the street is wrong. I would make sure the bloke tied to my car was alive so he can feel every piece of tarmac he is being dragged over. Whether he is dead or alive after is irrelevant. Hope this clarifies your question

This is taking dogging to a whole new level

But surely it is relevant whether he is alive or dead after. In your little world everything would be hunky dory up until the point the bloke dies and then it would be overstepping the mark to drag him any further. And I'm still perplexed as to why it suddenly becomes wrong to drag him through the streets after he is dead. I'm not sure you've thought through your position thoroughly.

I realise some people have a lack empathy but making jokes? really? I'm f'in fuming about this story, it makes me actually feel sick. Can't stand animal cruelty, RIP little dog. If he did it on purpose then he is a dead man walking.

Do you know the circumstances of this incident? I suspect not. Is it not feasible that he forgot the dog was tied to the car and drove off, remembered and panicked? I seem to recall a similar story last year in Crawley. Best if you get off your high horse until you know the facts.

Your link doesn't work.

I'm not on any high horse, this horrific death doesn't warrant jokes.

Wasn't actually a joke about the dog, more about what goes on up Devils Dyke. I too am sickened by what has been done. No doubt he will get a fine and a slap on there wrist. I personally think he should be charged with murder. If it happened to a human he would never see life outside of a prison ever again. Why should it be different for a dog? Makes me sick

Look forward to hearing how this case develops.

It will, I have a feeling the nationals will pick up on this story and he will be hounded by the press.

....be the same as putting your child on the roof and driving off..


I've done that twice now. First time he slid off as i went round a corner and landed in a hedge. Second time i accelerated sharply and he slid off the back. Luckily that time he landed on the dog i'd tied to the bumper.
