A Florida woman was arrested on Sunday after allegedly stabbing her boyfriend’s dog several times, later telling authorities she "made a mistake," according to law enforcement officials. The Hernando County Sheriff’s Office said 23-year-old Megan Lynn Mileskiewicz was arrested and charged with animal cruelty and resisting arrest. The sheriff’s office said that, at about 10:45 a.m. on Sunday, deputies responded to a 911 call in which a witness reported that a woman was repeatedly stabbing her boyfriend’s dog inside the home. When deputies arrived at the home in Spring Hill, Mileskiewicz was not inside, but witnesses said she fled out the backdoor of the residence.
