The family of the dog released a statement:
The cop had no reason to shoot our Brute. Brute had a tough childhood because his father was not part of his life. In his youth, he chased squirrels and cats, then he fell in with a bad crowd. Recently though, he had started to turn his life around and he was accepted to Dog Obedience School to begin in a few weeks. He was so looking forward to going to school. Now Brute can’t go because a trigger-cop murdered him for no reason whatsoever.
Brute’s smile could light up a room as you can see from photo released with this.
