A Pennsylvania man is now hospitalized after his dog allegedly fired a shotgun at him, injuring him in the back, according to the Shillington Police Department.

At approximately 11:13 p.m. on Tuesday, officials received reports of a shooting and that a 53-year-old man had suffered a gunshot wound to his back, police said in a press release obtained by ABC News.

While police were on their way to the scene, officials were informed that a dog had "jumped onto the bed and set the gun off," police said. Once at the scene, officials found the man on the floor and conscious, police said.

The victim told police that before the incident, he was cleaning his firearm -- which was identified as a shotgun -- and had placed it on his bed, officials said. He then proceeded to sit down on the bed, "at which time one of his dogs jumped onto the bed," causing the weapon to fire a round into the man's lower back, officials said.

 

 

 

Apparently the dog demanded a walk, the owner refuses and the situation escalated from there.

Maybe the man was sick and the dog just thought, ‘Yeah… it’s time to put him down'.

Stupid people allow dogs on their bed. Both the dog and the dog owner should be put down.

Proving, guns don’t kill, someone or something needs to pull the trigger.
