Brookfield police filed criminal felony charges in the case last week. Village Green Veterinary Service and Kilar Properties of 107 Christian Ave., Hubbard, have filed the civil action against defendants Tracey E. and Thomas J. Obermiyer of 499 Obermiyer Road, Brookfield, according to a lawsuit filed in February in Trumbull County Common Pleas Court. The case, which also names unknown individuals who may have acted in concert with the Obermiyers, has been assigned to Judge Peter J. Kontos, who has not scheduled any hearings yet, according to court records. The Obermiyers were served a copy of the lawsuit as of Feb. 17, according to records, but have not filed an answer. A voice message was left on the landline telephone at the Obermiyers home seeking comment.
