A Brick Township man pleaded guilty to animal cruelty charges today, acknowledging the allegation that he purposely drove his car into a flock of geese, killing the birds.

Prosecutors, in a statement, said they will seek a 90 day jail term, community service and a judge’s order prohibiting Quintin Alec-Manning, 22, from owning or working with animals in the future.



The incident occurred May 29, 2019. According to police, officers from the Toms River Township Police Department were notified that a motor vehicle struck a family of five geese in the parking lot of the Indian Head Plaza in Toms River, causing their death.  A subsequent investigation by the police department identified Alec-Manning as the individual who purposely hit the geese with his motor vehicle. On May 30, 2019, Alec-Manning was arrested, charged, and released on a summons pending future court appearances.
