The video above has gone viral on the internet after a cop was seen shooting a rottweiler for protecting its 52 years old owner, Rosby, from being arrested and taken away.
A bystander behind Rosby was recording him, and can be heard
saying that Rosby asked the police why there weren't any black cops present.
This drew the attention of two Hawthorne police officers, who started to
approach Rosby.
From the video, Rosby can then be seen putting his dog into
his car and voluntarily putting his hands behind his back to be arrested. As he
was being handcuffed by the officers, the dog started barking and jumped out of
the car lunging towards the cops who shot it several times. Police said they
had no choice but to shoot as the dog lunged towards them.
The dog can be seen howling and struggling defencelessly on
the floor looking towards its owner.
Rosby's attorney, Michael Gulden, told CBS that he plans to
file a lawsuit against the Hawthorne Police Department. He said the incident
took place at 137th Street and Jefferson.
So sad.........Wish there was justice for animals too.
Who knows? Justice might soon be given to the animals indeed. this is a case of unfair treatment to the loyal dog.
