LEE SUMMIT, Mo. - A 19-year-old Missouri man faces charges in the alleged of mutilation and decapitation of a cat inside an Arby’s bathroom as revenge for being fired.

Tanner Maggard was charged with one count of animal abuse and one count of property damage in Jackson County, according to court documents. He has also been ordered to stay 1,000 feet away from the Arby’s location where the incident allegedly happened.

Maggard used to work at the location before he was fired in June for allegedly “setting fires” in the restaurant.

On Oct. 19, court documents stated that Maggard went to Arby’s, ordered food and went into the men’s bathroom. He eventually came out and asked the manager if it had been remodeled.

Maggard then went back into the bathroom and into a stall. According to court documents, the manager went in to clean the bathroom after all the customers had left and could hear Maggard in a stall “coughing and gagging.” The manager left the bathroom and waited for Maggard to leave so he could finish cleaning.
