Man Claims Police Killed His Dog When Responding to Wrong Address
I fully understand that police officers put their lives on the line everyday. I can also understand they live with stress as a constant partner 24/7. Mistakes can and are made, as in any other profession. In this case an innocent man lost his dog.
A Texas man claims that his beloved dog Cisco was shot point blank by a police officer who responded to a call at the wrong address.
Michael Paxton, 40, said he and his Australian cattle dog Cisco were relaxing and playing Frisbee in his Austin backyard on Saturday afternoon when he decided to go get something from his truck in the driveway.
As he approached his truck, he said he saw something from the corner of his eye and looked up to see a police officer who immediately drew his weapon and told Paxton to put his hands up.
