Dog Shot to Death After Alleged Attack in Wenatchee Tuesday

Wenatchee Valley Animal Care and Control is investigating after a dog was shot to death in South Wenatchee Tuesday around 3:00 pm.

Chelan County Sheriff's Office Sergeant Robb Huddleston said a man and his mother were reportedly walking on Boodry Street when three unleashed dogs approached them.

One of the dogs was allegedly acting aggressive. Huddleston said that after about a minute and a half of what the gun owner called an "attack" on his mother, the man he shot the dog dead.

"The dog owner did say that she did not hear an altercation outside when she was inside," Huddleston said. "The sheriff's office determined that on the discharge of the firearm there was no crime committed."

There were no reported injuries.
