During the pursuit, a Riverside officer hopped a fence into the back yard of of a home on Norman Boulevard where he saw the teen enter. When the officer looked up he was face-to-face with a wolf, said police.
The officer said he had no choice but to shoot after the animal lunged at him. The wolf was injured but did not sustain any fatal wounds, according to reports.

Between shooting pets, and shooting home owners after raiding the wrong houses.
I'm starting to think that Chicago politicians statement about cops doing killings isn't that far off the deep end.

Wolves and wolf hybrids are illegal to own I thought, maybe that is just here.
Almost hit a wolf last night on the way home from Kenai.

ever since reading and watching game of thrones I've wanted a wolf for a pet I know a guy in Montana who breeds them. Fuckers howl all night long. It's neat to hear at first, but gets old. They are BIG sumbitches. And I wouldn't trust them. They can be friendly, but they can also snap. And when they snap, you'd be begging to have a pitbull gnawing on your junk instead. Beautiful animals though. |

Just to play devil's advocate: what if instead of shooting a pet wolf the cop shot and killed an 6 year old boy playing with a nerf gun in his backyard? Should the cop and pd be rendered completely blameless just because if the suspect wouldn't have ran none of it would have happened? |

First story yet where I believe the cop legitimately feared for his life. Glad the wolf didn't get deaded though. Not his fault that the cop decided to run through his territory.

Posted Via AR15.Com Mobile I'd REALLY like to see that as well! My daughter's firm, Holland and Knight, just had a MAJOR case representing a home owner that was shot by cops after they followed (they THINK!) a suspected thief onto the home owner's private property. HO was shot five times without warning after he came out to investigate noise (the cops pulling down wooden fence to enter his property) and was in a coma for several months. On the SD's audio tape you can hear "Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!" and THEN hear cops calling "Sheriff's department, Drop the weapon!". Her case went all the way to the USSC. SD drug the case out with appeals for several years but then settled the day that the case was supposed to start in Federal Court. |

Why?
Fences are in place to provide privacy and protection. You violate both by climbing over a fence. you don't have a right to shoot an animal that is SUPPOSED to be in a place that you're not. Neither the animal nor the home owner were engaged in any illegal activity. The officer created the confrontation with the animal. I understand his actions, but he should not be off the hook either.
