\nA man from Grayson County was arrested after police say he broke into an animal shelter and released more than a dozen dogs from their enclosures.<\/p>\n
Leitchfield Police say surveillance footage shows Michael Barker walking into the Leitchfield Animal Shelter and letting out 16 dogs and leaving with a small white one.<\/p>\n
When officers responded to a report of a break-in at the facility Tuesday, they found multiple dogs were released from their kennels and one was found dead.<\/p>\n
Surveillance showed the released dogs fighting, which police believe led to the one death and injuries of four other dogs.<\/p>\n
Leitchfield Police requested a warrant for Baker\u2019s arrest and took him into custody at his home without incident Tuesday night.<\/p>\n
The small, white dog Baker left with has not been found and Baker is facing several charges, including burglary, trespassing and cruelty to animals.
