PHILADELPHIA (WGN) -- Authorities say a 14-year-old girl has been charged with murder in the beating death of a well-known animal rescuer in his Philadelphia home.
Court documents indicate the teenager is also charged with robbery, evidence tampering and other counts in the Nov. 4 death of 59-year-old Albert Chernoff.
The Philadelphia Inquirer reports that Chernoff was pronounced dead at the scene after he was found partially tied to a bed with a head wound and slashing injuries on his chest early Tuesday, November 5.
Chernoff's one-man cat rescue operation was featured on the NATGeoTV reality show "Rescue Ink."
