According to an arrest report, the video shows Karim Fathi Ellaisy, 21, entering an elevator Thursday at the Brickell Heights apartment building at 55 SW Ninth St. with his friend’s 6-month-old, purebred Siberian Husky. Miami police said Ellaisy also slapped the dog multiple times and threw it against the other side of the elevator. People who live at the apartment building told Local 10 News reporter Madeleine Wright they can’t believe one of their own neighbors is capable of such a thing. “This is a regrettable situation for my client," Ellaisy’s attorney, Richard Cooper, said in a statement to Local 10 News.
