ROGERS COUNTY, Okla. - Two men convicted of killing cattle must pay thousands of dollars in restitution.

A judge has ordered 20-year-old Traton Vanderpool and 21-year-old Jared Barlass, both of Broken Arrow, to pay $85,000 to the family that owned the cattle.

The two were sentenced in February 2012 for eight counts of animal cruelty.  They avoided jail time by entering a delayed sentencing program for young adults.

The two men are now on probation for shooting several animals, including a prize show calf with a bow and arrow.

The crimes happened in 2011 in Rogers County.
