The Yavapai County Sheriff�s Office arrested a 68-year-old man on Sept 16 after neighbors reported hearing gunshots in the Prescott Country Club.

John Mosley faces multiple felony charges of animal cruelty, endangerment, disorderly conduct, and criminal damage.

A sheriff�s press release says that at 10:15 p.m. deputies went to the 10000 block of Oxbow Drive to investigate the report of gunfire. Witnesses said they saw Mosley standing outside his home holding a shotgun right after they heard shots.

During their investigation, deputies discovered a small dog shot to death in the neighbor�s yard behind Mosley�s house along with an expended shotgun shell.

Mosley denied any involvement in the shooting of the dog. Based on the eyewitness accounts, deputies arrested Mosley and then later served a search warrant on his house. The search revealed a shotgun and an opened box of shotgun shells that matched the empty shell deputies found near the dead dog.
