Kevin Raymond Frasier, 29, of Watch Field Road in Charleston was sentenced to six months for killing the puppy and up to five years - suspended on service of one year behind bars and three years probation - for assaulting the dog's owner. The 3-month puppy was beaten and its skull fractured with a beer bottle while the dog was on a leash. The dog could not be saved and was put to sleep.

Frasier will have to pay $550.50 restitution to the dog's owner as compensation for the animal's purchase price and veterinarian bills.

He was also given another one-year sentence for resisting arrrest. Charleston police stopped Frasier for driving under suspension on Sept 11, the day after the dog was beaten.

A 60-day sentence was given for the second-offense DUS. The four jail sentences will be served concurrently.

Frasier pleaded guilty to ill treatment of animals and assault and battery of a high and aggravated nature.
