Police Chase Suspect, Take a Moment To Shoot Dog
A Thornton police officer shoots and kills a family’s dog he claims threatened him Sunday.

They say the American bulldog-mix never even left their front yard.
Police were in the neighborhood chasing after a man wanted on a misdemeanor drug charge.
The man, Phillip Armstrong-Bowen, was already under arrest when the officer shot the animal.
