ANSONIA — A couple whose dog was shot and killed by police earlier this month said Friday they will be speaking to Police Chief Kevin Hale about the matter.
Police Friday issued a statement about the incident, explaining that the dog was aggressive and police determined it was a danger to area residents.
Lt. Andrew Cota said in a press release that on March 3, police received a 911 call about a white pit bull running around the area of 5 Myrtle Ave. and that the dog had just “chewed up” a person.
When police arrived at about 5:30 p.m., neighbors pointed out that the dog was running on Judson Place. Officers located a white pit bull running behind the rear of 34 Judson Place, Cota said.
