A 19-year-old man was behind bars Tuesday after allegedly biting the head off a gecko as part of a bet.

Derrick Ford was being held in the Orange County Jail after being charged with felony animal cruelty, police said.

Ford was at a friend's home Sunday when someone bet him $10 that he wouldn't bite the head off a gecko, the Times Herald-Record of Middletown reported.

Though Ford won the bet, it wasn't long before police showed up and placed him under arrest, the newspaper said.

Ford, who also was charged with violating parole, is now awaiting further court action.


:-k How did the cops find out?
