Man accused in Dallas Zoo crimes indicted on felony charges

DALLAS — The man accused in a string of crimes at the Dallas Zoo, from cut enclosures to stolen animals, has been indicted on a pair of felony charges.

A Dallas County grand jury handed up indictments Tuesday morning against Davion Dwight Irvin, 24, on two counts of burglary.

The first major incident at the zoo, on Jan. 13, was the disappearance of the clouded leopard named Nova, who was found unharmed hours later. Police said her habitat had been intentionally cut. Zoo officials later discovered torn enclosures for langur monkeys, which were still in their habitat, and the unusual death of a lappet-faced vulture named Pin came about a week later.
