(KAIR)--An Atchison woman, accused of fatally abusing a dog, now faces charges related to the animal's death.

Atchison Police Chief Mike Wilson tells MSC News 28-year-old Taylor Bonar, Wednesday, was arrested by Atchison Police on an Atchison County District Court warrant charging her with cruelty to animals.

According to Wilson, the case dates back to May of last year when Atchison Police, following a report made by the Humane Society of Atchison, began to investigate the alleged dog abuse that occurred at a residence in the 500 block of North 9th Street.

Wilson says the puppy sustained injuries that resulted in its death.

Bonar, following her arrest, was booked into the Atchison County Jail, but was released on a bond of $2,500 on Thursday.
