How come Dario Harris of Georgia, a man who spray paints gas lines, faces animal cruelty charges? Because instead of gas lines, he spray painted Jeffrey Tompkins’ black Lab, Bear, while she was fenced in her yard in Stone Mountain,

reports.

Harris claims he did it on self defense! He claims he was at Tompkins’ home marking locations of gas lines and was checking the gas meter when Bear came barking at him. But if the dog was tied up, don't you think it is a lame excuse?Moreover, the gas company where Harris is engaged, says he was not even supposed to check gas meters. The poor Bear had to have her eyes flushed and was put on antibiotics.Now, Harris is facing animal cruelty charges and if proved guilty, he may get a jail term for a year.I'll let you know what the outcome is later. meanwhile, let me know what you think of this man charged with animal cruelty.
