A 21-year-old man who police said entertained his friends at a southeast Houston apartment complex by torturing and burning a month-old kitten to death earlier this month was apprehended Monday.
A witness told police that James Edward Land set the kitten on fire on Nov. 14 at the Royal Palms Apartments, 5601 Royal Palms, officers said. The witness told police that Land put the kitten into a pillowcase and threw it while he and his friends laughed. Land then doused the kitten with lighter fluid and set it on fire, the witness said.
After police were called, the witness said, Land put the kitten in a garbage bag and placed it in a trash bin at the complex.
The kitten was still alive, said Sgt. Doug Osterberg of the Houston Police Department's Major Offenders Division. Osterberg and representatives of the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals went to the complex and found the kitten struggling in the trash bin. The kitten later died.
"This is pretty sad," Osterberg said. "The witness was horrified."
Land was identified by the witness and charged, but police were unable to find him to arrest him until Monday, when he was again spotted at the Royal Palms Apartments. Osterberg said Land ran when he saw police but was caught after a five-block foot chase.
Land is charged with felony animal cruelty, evading arrest and possession of marijuana. His bail had not been set Monday night.
And Shepherds we shall be
For thee, my Lord, for thee.
Power hath descended forth from Thy hand
Our feet may swiftly carry out Thy commands.
So we shall flow a river forth to Thee
And teeming with souls shall it ever be.
