MONTGOMERY COUNTY, Texas – There’s a happy ending for an abused dog in Montgomery County, according to the sheriff’s office.

Back on February 26, Cody Tyler Tombros was arrested in the 25600 block of Interstate 45 at the Dakota Canyon Apartments. Witnesses said he threw his then-6-month-old pit bull puppy out of a second-story apartment building window and stomped on it, according to the Montgomery County Sheriff’s Office.
