Outrage as Oklahoma cop uses AR-15 to shoot dead family dog that was behind a fence during boy's fifth birthday party - after turning up at the WRONG address to serve a warrant
Vickie Malone said her son Eli and his fellow birthday party guests had just gone inside for cake on Saturday when they heard a loud bang
They looked out the window and saw three-year-old American Bulldog Pit Bull mix Opie lying on the ground bleeding
Family said a Wynnewood police officer shot and killed Opie with a high-powered rifled
The officer initially said the dog tried to attack him through the fence but did not offer any other reason for the shooting, family said
Police chief said dog charged the officer and that the shooting was justified
The adults at the home ran outside near where the fence surrounds the family's yard and found the three-year-old American Bulldog Pit Bull mix 'kicking and gasping for air,' according to FOX 25.
At the time of the shooting, the officer was serving a warrant for a man named Shon McNiel from a 10-year-old case, listing Malone's house as the suspect's last known address, according to FOX 25.
The mayor said the incident will be discussed at the next city council meeting and said the officer who killed the dog had previous questionable actions, according to FOX 25.
