SALT LAKE CITY (AP) -- A Murray man accused of beating a dog and placing it in an oven now faces charges.
Thirty-six-year-old Marc C. Vincent has been charged with two misdemeanor counts of cruelty to animals after he tormented his dog, Henry, on two separate incidents in May.
Court documents say Vincent admitted to chasing and cornering the dog with a leaf blower on May eighth after his wife came home to find Henry with a swollen eye.
Court records say several weeks later, Vincent's wife came home to find her dog with burned paws. Vincent then admitted to putting Henry in a 200-degree oven for five minutes.
As of yesterday, the dog was still recovering at Cottonwood Animal Hospital.
