San Bernardino County deputies arrested a 36-year-old man on Tuesday after Lake Gregory residents accused him of killing a beloved bird.Witnesses recorded the man allegedly throwing rocks at the white egret as it sat on the neighborhood's dock. Neighbors asked the suspect to stop throwing rocks at the bird. However, they said things only escalated as he attacked the bird as it got closer to him.
'The video circulated in Swisher's neighborhood helped investigators track the suspect to his Claremont home. There, detectives contacted Jeremey Jansen and confirmed that he was the person seen in the video, according to the San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department. Deputies arrested and booked Jansen for animal cruelty and for violating the Fish and Game Code. 'It's cruel. What's the next step to that cruelty,' Swisher said in early November.
