A township man was arrested and charged with animal cruelty after he allowed a dog to freeze to death Saturday, officials said.

Robert Dunbar, 25, of Sixth Avenue was charged Tuesday night with three counts of animal cruelty after Sgt. Matty Juliano of the Monmouth County Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals was sent to investigate the death of a female pit bull-mix.

Juliano was accompanied by township police, SPCA Police Chief Victor "Buddy" Amato said.

Dunbar faces up to six months in jail and a fine of up to $3,000 if he is convicted of the charges in Municipal Court, Amato said.
