TORONTO – A pet dog is dead after a man allegedly pulled out a gun at a public park and fired at the canine.
Sydney, an Australian Shepherd, was off its leash at Penstemon Park in Colorado Springs, Colorado before suffering a fatal wound. The dog’s owner was close by and saw it all happen.
“We were just playing ball in the park,” the owner – who doesn’t want to be identified – told KKTV.
That’s when a man appeared on a nearby sidewalk.
Instead of a friendly exchange between man and dog, the owner witnessed something horrific.
“Before I had a chance to get her to come back to me, he pulled out a gun and shot her several times,” she told KKTV.
The Denver Post reports that the suspect then fled on foot and remains at large. The Colorado Springs police department is still investigating.
