No Justice: Kevin Sullivan Set A Cat On Fire.. Police Shot The Cat To Put It Out Of It's Misery

[Sugar Cookie]

Authorities in Butler County said Wednesday they are looking for a man who so badly burned a cat it had to be shot by police to put it out of its misery.

The Butler County Sheriff's Office alleges Kevin L. Sullivan, 32, set a cat on fire using lighter fluid Sept. 19 on Howard Street in Middletown.

In a news release, sheriff's office spokeswoman Sgt. Melissa Gerhardt said Sullivan initially lied to law enforcement, but the investigation of the incident led police back to Sullivan.

Middletown police who arrived at Howard Street shot the suffering feline, killing it, authorities said.

Sullivan is wanted on the fifth-degree felony of cruelty to animals.

“This is absolutely disturbing, and this guy definitely needs to be off the streets. I have a room for him here in my jail, where he needs to be," Bulter County Sheriff Richard K. Jones said in the news release. "I don’t understand people who harm or torture a defenseless animal, it is a very cowardly thing to do."

People who saw a cat engulfed in flames and running through their neighborhood are outraged after a man who lives nearby was charged with setting the fire.

“The fire was about a foot high off of the cat,” said Renee Manies who lives in the Middletown neighborhood. “I just started crying. I was screaming. I was saying, ‘who would do this to an animal?’

Neighbors put out the fire but it was too late. The cat had to be put down.

“There was no fur, it was just like melted, it was awful,” Manies said.

Kevin Sullivan, who lives just a few feet from where the cat was first seen on fire, is charged with felony animal cruelty for the Sept. 18 crime.

He was arraigned in Middletown Municipal court Friday.

Security cameras captured the cat, fully engulfed in flames, running across Arlington Avenue. People are seen running to help the animal.

“I ran in and we’re getting bowls of water and a wet towel,” Manies said.

Police records show investigators went to Sullivan’s detached garage where they found evidence of the crime.

One officer wrote there was, “an overwhelming smell of lighter fluid” and they found “charred cat skin and cat hair.”

A Middletown plead guilty to a felony charge of animal cruelty for setting a cat on fire in the summer of 2017.

Kevin L. Sullivan, 33, entered the plea to the fifth-degree felony Tuesday in Butler County Common Pleas Court more than a year after the incident outside a Howard Avenue residence.

Sullivan was scheduled to appear in Judge Charles Pater’s courtroom in May after posting a $50,000 bond, but he never showed.

Pater sentenced Sullivan to three-years probation for cruelty to companion animals. He faced up to 12 months behind bars.

Middletown police and a Butler County Deputy dog warden were dispatched Sept. 18, 2017 to Howard Avenue, where the fire department had put out the cat that was ablaze. A police officer shot the cat to put it out of its misery, according to a police report.

Samples taken from the cat and the blanket used to smother the fire indicated that lighter fluid was used, according to court records.

Police said Sullivan initially lied to them about his involvement, but an investigation by Middletown police and the dog warden’s office led back to him as a suspect.
