PORT JERVIS, NY (AP) -- Would you bite the head off a gecko for $10?
Police in Port Jervis, New York, said a 19-year-old man did, and now he's behind bars after being charged with animal cruelty.
Officials said Derrick Ford was at a friend's home Sunday when someone bet him ten dollars that he wouldn't bite the head off a gecko, a small lizard.
Though Ford won the bet, it wasn't long before police showed up and placed him under arrest. He's being held in the Orange County Jail.
