For the second time, a Myakka City man has been charged with animal cruelty, according to a Manatee County Sheriff's Office report.

Deputies arrested Felipe Munoz, 83, of the 4800 block of Wauchula Road, Monday, after finding farm animals in 93 degree heat without food and water.

The sheriff's report said deputies also found numerous dead chickens and a dead pig in the same area with living pigs.
