Police are searching for a man recently seen beating a dog via doorbell camera footage in Anaheim. 

The footage shows a man aggressively walking toward a dog before throwing a series of punches and kicks as the animal cowers against the wall in the hallways of an apartment complex, the Gateway Apartment Homes located on S. State College Boulevard across the street from Angel Stadium. 

Afterwards, the man, wearing what appears to be a Paris St. Germain Football Club jersey, is seen dragging the dog behind him by his leash, throwing two more kicks. 

The video, which has received hundreds of thousands of views online, has the community enraged and eager to locate the man in the video. 

After nearly a week of investigation, police released a felony warrant for the arrest of the man they believe to be the subject in the video, 33-year-old Albert Frank Abad Jr. 

Abad is described as 5'10" tall, 155 pounds, with brown hair and brown eyes. While police have been unable to locate the suspect, they believe he is still in Southern California.

"That video came into us by social media," said Anaheim Police Department Sergeant Shane Carringer. "We, this morning, assigned two detectives to it — they started working it immediately."

Police are unsure exactly when the footage was recorded and if Abad lives in the apartment complex.

People who do live in the apartments are keeping their eyes open, trying to figure out if they can assist in the investigation.

"It's terrible. I don't know why anyone would treat a dog like that," said Collin Pfaff, who lives in the apartments. "I love my dog, I would never kick him, or beat him or anything like that. It's atrocious honestly."

On Thursday, Abad turned himself in to Anaheim police at around 1:30 a.m. He also dropped the dog, named Steeler, off at a veterinary clinic prior to doing so.
