dashcam video of an officer shooting and killing a dog in the parking
lot of United Supermarket, 5001 Marsha Sharp Freeway on September 8.Both the dashcam and a police report identify
the officer as Clinton Lewis. Lewis wrote in the report, "An
aggressive pit bull was attacking another dog in the parking lot of
United Supermarkets. The dog placed myself and others in danger of
serious bodily injury. I fired one round into the dog with my LPD-issued
pistol."Police say they were called to United because of a complaint about the dogs fighting.When the story first became public some
criticized the officer for presuming that the dog was dangerous because
it was a pit bull. Others at the time defended the officer as saying
the safety of people was more important than the well-being of the dog.Police have made a statement defending the actions of the officer.
