Man sentenced for killing pup, slapping woman<\/b> An Ocean Beach man who pleaded guilty to killing the puppy of his then-girlfriend and to slapping the woman during a domestic violence incident was sentenced Aug. 29 to one year in county jail. Because Aubry Eugene Glascock, 32, received credit for serving 260 days in jail already, he will be released on Sept. 18, according to the sheriff\u2019s department. San Diego Superior Court Judge Eugenia Eyherabide placed Glascock on three years\u2019 probation and ordered him to stay away from his former girlfriend. A restraining order remains in place. The incident took place April 27 at a motor home parked at the foot of Voltaire Street near Dog Beach. Glascock slapped his girlfriend and then threw the 4-month-old puppy against the motor home. The dog was dead at the scene when police arrived. Glascock also pleaded guilty to vandalism for kicking out a window in a holding cell at George Bailey Detention Facility. He was given a 90-day concurrent sentence, which adds no additional time. He was also ordered to pay nearly $1,700 to the sheriff\u2019s department for damages. \u2014Neal Putnam<\/i><\/br> <\/br>Surfrider set to host \u2018Paddle for Clean Water\u2019<\/b> The San Diego Chapter of the Surfrider Foundation will host its 21st annual “Paddle for Clean Water” on Sept. 16 at the Ocean Beach Pier.
