Bobbi Kristina's problems 'out of control'
TAVERNIER, Fla., Nov. 25 (UPI) -- Authorities in Florida said a man was charged with animal cruelty after he admitted to shooting a kitten with an airsoft rifle, killing the feline.
The Monroe County Sheriff's Office said a guest at Ocean Point Condos in Tavernier was watching a mother cat and two kittens below his balcony Monday night when he heard a "pop" and one of the kittens shook, twitched and died, the South Florida Sun Sentinel reported Friday.
The guest told deputies he saw a gun barrel protruding over the edge of a nearby balcony, where investigators found Kenneth Ellis, 68, of Naples.
Ellis, who had an airsoft rifle with a scope attached inside the condo, admitted to shooting the kitten, deputies said.
Ellis was jailed on a cruelty to animals charge.
