Beyond Nasty

(Long Beach, New York) A local man, Mitchell Marsicano, has been arrested on burglary and sexual misconduct charges.

Nassau County prosecutors say Marsicano illegally entered an apartment in the house he owned and sexually assaulted the dog, a 23-pound Japanese breed named Snowball.

They said the tenants called authorities after witnessing the latest assault on Thursday.

The dog was examined at a nearby animal hospital and showed signs of trauma.

Marsicano was booked into custody with bail set at $10,000.
