Robber cooks dog in oven

2006-12-02 07:50

Savannah - A man who cook a dog to death in the oven of a house he was robbing has been sentenced to 15 years in prison, said a United States prosecutor.

Alexander Davis, 20, received a five-year sentence for aggravated animal cruelty and 10 years for burglary, said Chatham county assistant district attorney Melanie Higgins.

The dog's owner, Angela DeLettre, came home in August 2005 to find an open back door, items missing and a kitchen sink overflowing with water.

She found one of her dogs safe, but the other, a one-year-old rat terrier, was missing.

Police later found the dead dog in the oven, which had been set to 204°C.

Police arrested Davis on an anonymous tip off a few days later.
