A disturbing scene unfolded in Hollywood when a group of people were recorded beating a man — so they could stop him from allegedly beating a small dog on a leash.
According to reports, witnesses said the man was dragging and kicking the dog near Sunset Boulevard and the 101 Freeway on Monday. When onlookers saw what the man was doing, they reportedly ganged up and chased him down to give him a beating.
Bizarrely enough, one of the witnesses was Hunger Games actress Jena Malone, who told NBCLA she was one of the several people who got out of their car to help.

The Neon Demon star explained:
After the news broke, Malone took to Twitter to explain to her followers what happened. She wrote:
The actress later shared that the LAPD arrested the man on suspicion of animal cruelty, writing:
The LAPD apparently sided with the animal lovers. They didn’t file charges against the group who attacked the man. The dog was taken by animal control.
While speaking to NBCLA’s cameraman just before police arrived, the man, who has not been identified by authorities, said he didn’t think the dog was hurt. He shared:
The owner contacted NBC4 late Tuesday, saying her son took the dog, Champion, and that he had suffered a broken leg but was going to recover.
Jena shared a similar update in a third tweet, writing:
The actress shared the link for the GoFundMe page hours later, tweeting:
Such a crazy situation! Watch it all go down in the video (below).
