A Minnesota man turned himself in to police last week, telling them he bludgeoned a 78-year-old to death with a shovel and a moose antler because he believed the man was sexually “offending” children.

Levi William Axtell, 28, drove to the Cook County Sheriff’s Office minutes after fatally beating the man, alleging that the elderly man had “stalked” his 22-month-old daughter.

According to a complaint filed with the sheriff’s office, Axtell allegedly told detectives he had known the man for a long time and “believed him to have sexually offended against children in the past.” Read more: An asteroid could collide with Earth on Valentine’s Day 2046, NASA says On March 10, Axtell was charged with second-degree murder for the death of Lawrence Scully.
