Man behind bars for killing two dogs with a sledgehammer

A man is accused of killing his two dogs with a sledgehammer, "because he did not own a gun."

Tulsa court records show the incident happened in September of 2012 near Delaware and Pine.

Still, Robert Beach Jr. was just charged with two counts of animal cruelty last week.  He was booked into the Tulsa County jail yesterday.

Beach told officers he killed his Boxers because they attacked a little girl after jumping a fence.  Court records show the girl did have injuries to her forearm, chin, and throat.

He chose a sledgehammer because of not owning a gun and he wanted to be humane to his pets.
