Bodycam Video Shows Deputy Shooting Charging Pit Bull

** (Disclaimer: Video posted strictly for educational and information purposes only) **
Deputies said they were forced to open fire on an “aggressive” pit bull in Wittmann on Sunday. According to the Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office, Sgt. Daniel McPheeters and Deputy Fernando DeLaTorre conducted a welfare check after receiving a tip about possible criminal activity at the house in the evening near 243rd Avenue and Patton Road. As they approached the home, a dog started barking and the two started to back away. That’s when Sgt. McPheeters slipped and fell. MCSO said the pit bull charged at him so McPheeters fired one round and hit the dog. The dog’s owner took the pit bull to a veterinarian and the dog is in the care of its owner. It was alive at last check. McPheeters wasn’t seriously hurt. The Sheriff’s Office released body camera video of the incident. An investigation is underway into what procedures were followed.

  1. You can tell this guy hunts. If he can slide like that and land a shot on a canine like that, he could have about a dozen wolf heads on his wall

  2. Cops are 👎👎👎👎🇺🇸👮 ♀️👮 ♂️👎💩

  3. Lol what a badass shot, 🤷‍♂️ i love dogs but if you dont want your dogs to get shot PUT IT ON A LEASH!!

  4. Between me and my deceased ol Lady, we had over 45 years between us, breeding Champion Show, Search and Rescue, Companion and just plain old fashioned ADBA Papered Pitties and we would cull the pups that showed aggressive behavior like fence fighting, resource guarding or dominance aggression after 12 weeks. We bred some of the most beautiful, genetically perfect dogs the ADBA ever saw and if a cop had to do what he did, I'd absolutely stand by his need to protect himself against an attack like that.

  5. No police officer WANTS to shoot dogs. If you love your dog you would never put them in a position where they could get shot. Why don't you get a Chihuahua? They need love too.
