Some people just need killin'

A Chicago man slammed his boyfriend’s miniature Goldendoodle against a CTA station wall and threw it to its death during an argument early Thursday in Lakeview, prosecutors said.
Demetrice Spencer, 43, was allegedly seen arguing with his boyfriend, who was holding the dog, as they waited for a train at the Paulina Brown Line station around 12:01 a.m. According to prosecutor Sarah Dale-Schmidt, the video shows Spencer throwing items from the platform, including his own phone and a backpack.
At one point, Spencer picked up the dog, slammed it against the train station wall, and tossed it from the platform to its death, Dale-Schmidt said.
Spencer then left the train station, walked to the 2800 block of North Ashland, and asked a convenience store employee to call the police so he could surrender, according to Dale-Schmidt.
Police found the dog dead beneath the El tracks with a leash still around its neck.
