According to local outlet KNOP News 2, police in Scottsbluff, Nebraska, recently responded to reports of a shotgun blast outside a convenience store. The cops arrived to find a truck with a hole blown through one of its doors and a with an arm loaded with shotgun pellets. Thankfully, her injuries were not life-threatening.
The shooter was not one of the many deranged gunmen that seem to be plaguing society nowadays, but rather a different type of gun-wielding menace: a dog. The investigators determined that the shotgun went off after a dog moving around in the backseat stepped on or somehow engaged the trigger of the shotgun, which was loaded at the time and did not have the safety on. This all happened as the truck was pulling into the store parking lot.
