A CCTV footage of a man throwing a live puppy into a pot of boiling oil in Mexico has been released, causing outrage.


A case of dog abuse that shocked many people. More shockingly, the man who abused the dog was a Mexican police officer.


The Mexico City Department of Public Safety said the man accused of throwing a dog to death in a pot of hot oil is a working police officer.


The officer's name is Sergio, and he was reportedly dismissed shortly after an arrest warrant was issued.


The man was arrested the previous day while staying at a relative's house in Mexico City's Borough of Coyoacan.

Residents flocked to the scene of the arrest and took retribution, such as hitting the back of the head of the man who committed animal abuse.


Then why the hell did this man commit such a terrible thing?


During the police investigation, he was reported to have said to the effect that he was "drunken on the day of the incident".


Sergio, who had previously had an argument with the butcher, picked up a puppy from the side of the road and threw it into the pot.


It is said that at the time, the pot was boiling oil for making chicharon (fried pork skin).

The puppy, thrown into the pot, struggled violently and eventually died. Sergio got into his vehicle and quietly disappeared from the scene.


The scene of the animal abuse was captured on the CCTV installed nearby, and the video of the scene was shared through various social media, infuriating netizens.


Meanwhile, the name of the dog who was killed by being thrown into a hot pot is known to have been disastrously lost while going with a child who came to buy meat as Scooby.


What kind of punishment will Sergio get for brutally killing a puppy?


According to Mexican state prosecutors, if found guilty of cruelty to animals, the person faces between three and six years in prison.


It is said that other charges, such as attempted murder, may be added in some cases, given that there is even a situation in which he threatened the owner of the butcher shop.
