A black man has been charged with animal cruelty after he charged at his kitten and kicked it 18 feet in the air through football goal posts before raising his arms for a field goal

Percy Love, 22, laughed as he was arrested after the assault on the black cat. The man was picked up by police, who witnessed the attack, on the south side of Chicago and is being held on a $50,000 bond. Love is set to appear in South Misdemeanor Court on February 1, 2012 on a charge of animal cruelty but was being held at Cook County Jail because he violated his parole for a burglary three years ago.
