Dog darts out front door, shot dead by cop Officer made unannounced stop at family's home Published: 9 hours ago
(DAILY MAIL) A mother and daughter are inconsolable after their dog Duchess was shot in the head three times by a police officer – and all because she ran out the front door when he was conducting a routine house check.
Duchess, a 40-pound bull terrier mix, was killed even though she wasn’t barking or being aggressive in any way, according to her owner, Gillian Palacios.
Palacios told Fox that on Tuesday morning, the police officer knocked on her door to say her car door had been left open.
She said that when she opened the front door of her house, her dog Duchess ran outside. Surveillance footage shows the officer fatally shooting the dog three times in the head.
