If you're referring to Joe Horn, the burglars had stolen thousands of dollars' worth of cash and jewelry.
There's a lesson here for those who can learn it: If you kill a dog, at least half the population will consider convicting you of a felony (PC § 42.092). Even other CHL holders.
I am never going to get involved in a dog thread again.

Re: Dog shot in city park
I wonder where that came from.Under Texas Penal Code Sect. 9.33, “a person is justified in using force or deadly force against another to protect a third person if the actor reasonably believes that his intervention is immediately necessary to protect the third person.”
Chapter 9.31-44 apply to force or deadly force used against people.

Re: Dog shot in city park
With that attitude, does anyone care to speculate how this incident would have been handled if the shooter were not a LEO?Stephenville Police Chief Roy Halsell wrote:Handgun laws have always been a huge concern of mine because I disagree with them, but they are state and federal laws and I cannot change them.
