Yunlin man hurls dog down building, causing severe injuries
2026-02-23
In the early hours of Sunday, a dog was shockingly hurled down from the third floor of a residential building, causing severe injuries. The dog was a stray that the suspect had captured and taken home on Saturday evening. According to the suspect, he was drunk and wanted to play with the dog, but the dog bit him and so he hurled it across the room in anger, only to have it fall out the window. A neighbor that rescued the dog later found that the suspect was already planning to escape. Fortunately he did not. Yunlin County’s animal protection has filed the case with prosecutors, and the suspect faces up to two years in prison if found guilty.
An injured dog wouldn’t stop wailing. A rescuer arrived and found the tan-colored dog lying on the ground. Almost miraculously, the dog stood on its own legs again after a little more than an hour, despite the pain.
The rescuer used cardboard as makeshift supporting equipment, and wrapped the dog in a towel before taking it to a vet. It sustained several life-threatening injuries, including a broken hip bone, a punctured liver and severe hemorrhage. The vet quoted the treatment at more than NT$50,000. The rescuer first paid the vet a little more than NT$30,000, before going to demand payment from the suspect who allegedly hurled the dog down the building. But it turns out that the suspect had already packed up and was about to escape. Fortunately, he was stopped.
- So you’re trying to escape so we can’t find you. Give me the money!
- I have none.
- So why did you hurl the dog down the building!
Residents of the apartment complex all condemn their neighbor for his cruelty.
- Utterly despicable. It almost died. I believe it might as well have died.
The apartment complex is located on Wenhua Road in Beigang, Yunlin. The suspect was identified by the police as a man surnamed Liu, who’s a renter. On Saturday evening, he took the dog home. By 1 a.m. Sunday, the dog fell from his residence on the third floor.
Liu
Suspect
I ate with friends and had a few drinks. I wanted to play with it, and pet it, but it bit me. I was really angry, so I lifted it and hurled it into a corner. I forgot that I didn’t close the window, so it fell. I’m really, really sorry.

Article 25 of the Animal Protection Act can be applied with a sentence of imprisonment for up to two years and a fine of not less than NT$200,000 and not more than NT$2 million.
The severely injured dog’s health condition is still highly unstable. Meanwhile, the suspect of animal abuse, if found to be guilty, could face imprisonment of up to two years and a fine of up to NT$2 million. The county’s Animal and Plant Disease Control Center has filed the case with local prosecutors.

太狠心! "自高樓被拋下"狗狗重傷 男供稱:酒後遷怒動手
2026-02-23
雲林縣北港鎮，有男子出聲引誘大黃狗跟隨之後，22日凌晨，竟將狗從租屋處3樓往下拋，導致狗狗身受重傷，善心鄰居將狗送醫後，前往男子住處要討醫藥費，發現對方疑似準備落跑，鄰居憤而圍堵他。丟狗男子落網後向外界道歉，坦承酒後脫序，所以遷怒狗，全案訊後依動保法送辦。
受傷的狗，不斷哀號，好心民眾趕來，發現大黃躺在地上，令人驚訝的是，牠經過大約1個多小時後，堅強勇敢忍痛站了起來。
民眾隨即用瓦楞紙板充當擔架，以毛巾包裹狗狗身體，將牠送醫。大黃不僅骨盆骨折，還伴隨肝臟破裂，與嚴重內出血，差一點就沒命，初估醫療費5萬多元，民眾先代墊3萬多元，再去找當事人討錢，赫然發現，嫌犯行李都打包好了，正拎著大包小包疑似準備落跑，遭到圍堵。
-你現在就要落跑，我們就找不到你，拿錢出來
-我就是沒錢
-沒錢你還丟狗
社區住戶紛紛痛罵，質疑男子實在沒良心。
-有夠惡劣，(狗)差不多躺在這裡，我看是差不多躺在這裡
案發在這處社區，位於雲林縣北港鎮文化路，警方調查，劉姓男子是租客，21日晚間，他誘拐大黃帶回租屋處，22日凌晨1點多，狗狗就從高樓墜落路面。

“聚餐喝酒，想說要跟牠玩，要摸牠而已，被牠咬一下，那時候當下很生氣，就把牠拖起來摔出去而已，我忘記窗戶沒有關，結果牠掉下去。很抱歉，很對不起。”
[[雲林縣動植物防疫所技正 陳建棠]]
“適用動保法第二十五條，兩年以下有期徒刑，併科二十萬以上，兩百萬以下罰金。”
由於大黃受重傷，健康狀況極度不穩定，涉案人恐面臨動保法第25條，可處2年以下有期徒刑，併科最高2百萬元以下罰金。動防所已檢附相關犯罪事證，函送雲林地檢署偵辦。
