Prosecutors say two teens have been charged with animal cruelty. They're accused of breaking into a vacant apartment in Brooklyn and setting a cat on fire.
The Brooklyn district attorney's office says the cat was doused with lighter fluid. The burned animal was found alive but had to be euthanized.
Eighteen-year-old Angelo Monderoy and 17-year-old Matthew Cooper also are charged with arson and burglary. Prosecutors say they could face 25 years in prison if convicted.
The names of their attorneys were not immediately on record.
The apartment also was damaged by the fire.
