Ceasar Bell, 26, of Elm Street, New Haven, has been re-arrested by authorities for skipping a court date. He posted $500 bail and is scheduled to be arraigned on the new charge Sept 15.
Bell is facing a year old animal cruelty charge for allegedly locking a pitbull puppy in the airless trunk of a car.
On Aug 25, 1997, Bell received a summons by Animal Control Warden Pat Liptak after he allegedly locked a pitbull mixed puppy in an airless truck of a sedan type vehicle and went into a shopping mall.
The puppy could have had a heat stroke due to the 76 degree temperatures and it was very sunny.
Bell could face up to five years in jail and a $5,000 fine if he is convicted on the failure to appear charge and another year on the animal cruelty charge.
Bell had applied last year for accelerated rehabilitation, a lenient form of probation for first-time offenders or less serious crimes. The application was never acted on because Bell allegedly failed to appear for his court hearing. Neighborhood MapFor more information about the Interactive Animal Cruelty Maps, see the map notes.
