The Lawrences’ 19-year-old daughter, Shonda, made an emergency call to the Humane Society that was answered by Bay County Animal Control and deputies, who took Daniel into custody. Two chickens and the turkey died immediately. One chicken was taken to Parkway Animal Hospital, where it was euthanized.
After he was released from jail Wednesday, Daniel told The News Herald he’d planned to make chicken and dumplings, but animal control took the chickens before he could get them back to the house. "They never knew what hit them," he said. "I’m one hell of a shot."
Richard Lawrence said he doesn’t care if Daniel kills his chickens, but he should do it on his own property. He said if he’d been home at the time of the incident, he’d have probably gone to jail too — for fighting.
"He never should have brought that gun down here," he said.
