The man who investigators say is connected to a string of unusual animal habitat tamperings at the Dallas Zoo – including the alleged theft of two tamarin monkeys – was indicted Tuesday on felony burglary charges, court records show.
Animal cruelty charges have been dropped against a 25-year-old man accused of taking two monkeys from the Dallas Zoo after he was found incompetent to stand trial. But he remains in custody and still faces two burglary charges related to what had been mysterious incidents there last year. Court filings indicate that Davion Irvin has been ordered to a state hospital and currently remains incompetent to stand trial. Prosecutors said in the Monday filings that they were dismissing the six misdemeanor animal cruelty charges against Irvin because he’d already spent the maximum amount of time allowed in jail for the punishment on those charges.
