Canoga Park LAPD Bodycam: Officer Shoots Dog During Knicks Celebration
TL;DR
A Los Angeles Police Department bodycam video released Friday shows an officer shooting a 106-pound dog after it charged toward officers in a Canoga Park apartment; the owner says the dog was not aggressive, and the screams heard were from Knicks celebration of the NBA Finals victory. Internal Affairs opened an investigation separate from a use-of-force review, and Mayor Karen Bass urged a thorough, transparent look at LAPD dog-encounter policies. The investigation could take up to a year to complete.
