Ted Shuttleworth, a screenwriter who worked on the "NYPD Blue" series, allegedly got mad at his poodle, Lola, and punched her in the face, the New York Post reported.
He reportedly rushed her to a vet hospital where she was declared dead due to brain injury caused by a hard hit to the head.
Shuttleworth, who reportedly hit the dog in May, was arrested at his house Saturday morning and could face a year in prison.
