DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. - Three young men were arrested Tuesday after police said they beat up a Navy veteran who asked them to stop torturing a turtle, according to Daytona Beach police.
A woman was walking her toddler around a pond at Wedgewood Apartments and told police she saw three men torturing a turtle. She went home and told her husband, Gary Blough, they were “smashing up a turtle.”
"The one had it over his head and he was smashing it down on the sidewalk," Blough said. "I asked them to please leave it alone, just let it go to the lake."

If he had a gun he could have save the world of more victimization.
Animal abusers are the lowest sort of subhuman trash there is. They should all be killed by having a red hot poker jammed RIGHT UP THEIR SUGAR-CHUTE!
they will be at the Salisbury riot tomorrow and by the way ,was Michael vick with them
Sorry this happened to a veteran and thank you sir. Anyone that would do that to a turtle will surely do the same to a human. And that would be because they are not human. The positive of this story is they will be convicted of at least animal cruelty. We realize the court system may not be too concerned on the assault of the veteran. Come on Donald...kick some ass while in charge.
The usual suspects.
This is the mentality of what we are dealing
with in America. They have no feelings for
any living being.
They should be hung up & beaten !!!
There is NO LAW strict enough for crimes
such as this & animals is where these type
people start -----
because animals can't defend themselves.!!
When will the Laws in our Country get
changed to stop this !!!
Typical of the youth of today they have no morals no fear of consequences no respect for life of any kind..the man or the animal..where's peta on this one.
When I think of how that sea turtle started out from digging out of its shell and then the sand when it was born, then avoiding being eaten by predators on the beach on its way to the water, then the predators in the surf, it's just wrong that it should have suffered a painful and pointless death at the hands of these lowest of the low predators who did it for sport.
Kudos to the GW vet who tried to stop them, and wishes for a speedy recovery.
To the young perpetrators, we all hope to be protected from the likes of you.
Salisbury transplants?
Sounds to me like they should be tried for attempted murder. After all they didn't stop beating on the veteran until other neighbors came out. They would probably have beaten him to death just like they did the turtle.
Let me guess, they were acting out against the unjust turtle That they believe is privileged by a systemic racist turtle family??
While all of you are sleeping the vigilantes are out in force.
When young people abuse animals, it is often a predictor of violence towards other people in the future. Not a pretty picture.
I hope the three of them die an excruciatingly painful death
Throw away the key.
If Obama had a son.....
I love turtles as this man does. Thank you for standing for what is right. Sorry for what you went through, but I would have stood up as well.
Pathetic thugs
Another promising young set of dindu'a.
