Oklahoma City Police identified the suspect as 19-year-old Christopher Jameson after they said he turned himself in on Saturday.

Police initially posted a photo to help search for Jameson and another female.

According to a police report, the suspect was seen on video holding a bunny down in its cage when the female exited the store.

The female told police she didn’t know the animals were killed until she saw the post on social media, the report said.

The report also said the suspect reached into the cage of a parakeet before later stealing a hamster and guinea pig.

The bunny and parakeet were found dead in their cages, and the hamster was found dead in the parking lot.

The guinea pig was considered missing until Edmond Police said security footage at Mitch Park showed the same two people walking into a bathroom with it. The female told police she didn’t know the guinea pig was dead until she tried to help it after it was not moving. Its remains were later found outside that bathroom.

Jameson was booked into the Oklahoma County Detention Center on the complaint of animal cruelty.

**Editor’s note: Police initially said they were searching for the female individual involved, but she said she didn’t know the animals were dead until after the social media post was made.**
