The dog's "owner" says he feels bad for the cop. I don't. Too bad he only shot himself in the leg. And that's a "large dog"? Ha. It is to laugh.

A Riverside County Sheriff’s spokesperson said the deputy was serving an eviction notice at around 2 p.m. on Wednesday when a “large” dog tried to attack him. It was the usual story. “A dog came at the deputy in an aggressive manner,” Deputy Armando Munoz said. “The deputy...pulled his service weapon, shot one round, and injured himself in the leg.”

When a KNCB news crew arrived on the scene, they found a medium-sized pit bull named “Precious” not running loose in the street, but confined to a pen and playing with several kids. According to the dog’s owner, it was barking when the officer arrived.
