Yoda Posted September 13, 2004 Share Posted September 13, 2004 Story Pup shoots man, saves litter mates The four surviving puppies are being treated at the Escambia County Animal Shelter. PENSACOLA, Florida (AP) -- Nice shootin', Rex! A man who tried to shoot seven puppies was shot himself when one of the dogs put its paw on the revolver's trigger. Jerry Allen Bradford, 37, was charged with felony animal cruelty, the Escambia County Sheriff's Office said Wednesday. He was being treated at a hospital for a gunshot wound to his wrist. Bradford said he decided to shoot the 3-month-old shepherd-mix dogs in the head because he couldn't find them a home, according to the sheriff's office. On Monday, Bradford was holding two puppies -- one in his arms and another in his left hand -- when the dog in his hand wiggled and put its paw on the trigger of the .38-caliber revolver. The gun then discharged, the sheriff's report said. Deputies found three of the puppies in a shallow grave outside Bradford's home, said sheriff's Sgt. Ted Roy. The other four appeared to be in good health and were taken by Escambia County Animal Control, which planned to make them available for adoption.

BobDylan Posted September 13, 2004 Share Posted September 13, 2004 I bursted out laughing when I read the title of the thread. He deserved to get shot, but he should have been shot in a much more harmful place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
