Brickbat: Well, They Didn’t Shoot

The Houston police department
has apologized to a family whose dog died after an
officer forced
the owner to leave it by the side of the road
. Josie
Garcia says her husband was giving a friend a ride when a cop
stopped him for not using his turn signal. A search of their
vehicle found prescription medication, which the Garcias say
belonged to the passenger. But the cop arrested both men, had the
vehicle towed and made them leave the family’s nearly blind
Chihuahua by the side of the road. Charges against Garcia’s husband
were later dropped, but by the time the family found their dog it
had been struck and killed by a vehicle.
