A man has avoided jail after drunkenly attacking a 70-year-old tortoise named Michelangelo a nursery in California.
He was also linked to other break-ins at the preschool in East San Jose and stole thousands of dollars of items in the days before and after the attack in January last year.
Robles was sentenced to two years of probation and mandatory mental health and substance abuse treatment. He was also banned from having any animals for 10 years. The defendant’s lawyer said his behaviour against the tortoise was the result of excessive intoxication, rather than animal cruelty. The tortoise needed surgery following the attack and was said to be “doing great” by the vet who performed the operation.
