Recently it is reported that a man came to the aid of a
child who was being attacked by 3 pit bull dogs. The man ran back into his house and retrieved
a hand gun that he kept in his home. The
man shot one of the dogs, in the mean time an officer who heard the commotion
responded and shot and killed the other two dogs.
We would be perfectly logical to assume that as additional
officers arrived on the scene that the injured child would be the first concern
of the additional officers who arrived a few moments later. We could assume that as they gathered the
information about what just happened that the officers on the scene would be
congratulating and thanking the citizen for valiantly coming to the aid of a
child. We could further presume that the
citizen would be nominated for a humanitarian award for his efforts at saving a
child from further maiming and possibly death.
