Former Loveland City Council candidate Christopher Say is accused of striking a neighbor’s dog with a long-handled yard tool in an incident that left the 6-year-old pitbull partially paralyzed, according to a newly released arrest affidavit. The Loveland Reporter Herald reports Say, 51, resigned from the Loveland Planning Commission on April 24 after being charged with aggravated cruelty to animals, a Class 4 felony, in Larimer County District Court. According to the affidavit filed by Loveland Police Detective Justin Atwood on April 20, the incident was initially investigated by NOCO Humane before being referred to Loveland police in January.
