MIAMI – A mail carrier with the U.S. Postal Service caught a 19-year-old Miami man beating a dog at his Little Havana trailer park, leading to his arrest Wednesday on two felony charges, according to police.
According to an arrest report, as she delivered mail to the Silver Court Trailer Park, located at 3170 SW Eighth St., at around 9:20 Tuesday morning, the carrier heard a dog crying and saw John Marvin Guadamuz punching the animal.
Police said she told him to stop, but he told her that the dog was “his property” and kept on punching.
According to the arrest report, Guadamuz only stopped beating the dog after the mail carrier said she was calling police, leaving his front yard to snatch the woman’s phone and throw it on the ground, breaking the screen.
