Ohio couple is facing animal cruelty charges after they allegedly ran down Tigger, a 12-pound Pomeranian puppy, on May 12, 2004. Tigger was outside his home when his 6-year-old "owner" and other witnesses watched as the dog was hit three times by the same car. Police and prosecutors believe that the driver and passenger of the car switched seats and repeatedly ran down Tigger in the street. Barry Shelott and Cassie Warsing, the alleged drivers of the vehicle that killed Tigger, have pleaded �not guilty� to animal cruelty charges as a result of this incident, and their trial begins on June 29, 2004. But because animal cruelty is still only a misdemeanor on the first offense, even if they are convicted, they face, at most, a 3-month jail sentence and a fine.
