The Humane Society of Atlantic County is asking for the public's help in identifying a man who, they claim, keeps dumping dogs at the shelter in the middle of the night.
Video posted to the organization's Facebook page shows a man picking up a dog and tossing it over their fence early Monday morning.
The organization claims it's the fourth time the same man has dumped a dog at their facility located on Absecon Avenue in Atlantic City. The man reportedly can be seen each time driving a black Cadillac sedan.

Executive Director of the Humane Society Steven Dash said not much is known of the dog the man left behind but the fact that she is a four to five year Pit bull with very distinct scarring on her back.
Dash adds that the man had dumped three other Pit bulls at their facility back in April.
