Footage shows tearful NYC cops rush to save poodle after it’s thrown off ledge by owner who ‘snapped’

Footage shows tearful NYC cops rush to save poodle after it’s thrown off ledge by owner who ‘snapped’

Tearful NYPD cops rushed to save a badly battered mini-poodle’s life after his owner “snapped” and threw him off a ledge at a Manhattan park, heart-stopping bodycam footage shows.

Owner Cleopatra Morgan, 26, told police she flung 1-year-old pooch Rocket at Highbridge Park at Edgecombe Avenue and West 165th Street in Washington Heights — then called 911 to confess to the sensless deed around 1:30 p.m. on May 16, cops and the ASPCA said.

NYPD Officer Kelsey Garcia swooped the tiny bleeding dog into her arms – and had little hope when another cop asked her if she thought Rocket would survive, according to the bodycam clip.

“No,” Garcia said through tears, the footage shows. “He needs to go to the doctor. He’s breathing but he’s choking.”

Rocket was “severely injured” and clinging to life when cops arrived – and Morgan claimed she “snapped” when she hurt her helpless pet.

“My first thought was this little guy is not going to make it – there’s no way,” Garcia told WABC in a Wednesday interview. “He was just bleeding from the nose and the mouth, barely conscious, labored breathing.”
