A Snow Camp man has been charged with animal cruelty after allegedly shooting and killing a dog, prompting the creation of a Facebook page in which thousands of people called for justice for the animal.
Trevor Lee White, 20, 9449 Lindley Mill Road, was arrested Tuesday on a charge of felony animal cruelty.
The incident allegedly occurred Nov. 7 while White was hunting on leased land near Robbie and Allie Dixon’s property, Dixon Brothers Farm, in southern Alamance County.
White is accused of shooting the Dixons’ dog, Ellie Mae, from a tree stand.
He then allegedly posted a video in a Facebook hunting group the next morning bragging about killing the dog as it was running loose, Allie Dixon said. Before removing the post after receiving criticism from other hunters, some members of the Facebook hunting group took screenshots of White’s post.
