MONTCLAIR-- Authorities say a dog shown in video on social media being thrown out of a car during a brawl on Bloomfield Avenue on Wednesday is recovering.

In the video posted online on Sunday on Streamable, two individuals shove one another in the middle of Bloomfield Avenue in Montclair next to a parked white Toyota and red Honda. One then reaches into the others' car and hurls a black dog onto the sidewalk.

"The dog is gonna die," a woman recording the incident inside of another vehicle says before driving away. As the video circulated the Internet over the weekend, viewers questioned whether the dog survived.

But investigators learned the dog was not seriously injured after tracking down and speaking to the men, Montclair Sgt. Michael Mongiovi said. The license plates of both vehicles were clearly visible in the clip.

"The dog is well," he said. "We've spoken to both parties involved."

Mongiovi declined to comment on whether either driver would face charges or the circumstances that led to the argument on the township road.

Michele Shiber, the township's animal control officer and investigator, first saw the video online Sunday afternoon and spent the evening trying to find the drivers shown in the clip.

"It's pretty intense video to begin with," she said. "But sometimes social media is a blessing."

The Montclair Animal Cruelty Investigator, Montclair Police Department and the SPCA are investigating the video.
