Oklahoma Yellow Labrador shoots woman in leg
2019-10-12
[NY Post] This wasn’t puppy love.

An Oklahoma woman was shot in the leg during a car ride ‐ by an excitable puppy that jumped on a loaded gun, according to cops.

Tina Springer, 44, was hit in the left thigh after her driver’s yellow Labrador, Molly, jumped on a .22-caliber handgun in a folding center console, according to the Enid News & Eagle.

"I had a dog in there and he stepped on the gun," driver Brent Parks, 79, told a 911 dispatcher. "The dog went stepped on it and it went off."

"The dog shot her?" the surprised-sounding dispatcher asked, to which Parks replied, "Yeah. He stepped on it and it went off."

Parks, who used his belt as a makeshift tourniquet, could be heard telling off his 7-month-old pet. "Well Molly, you’re the one who pulled that trigger. Don’t give me no s‐t," he "mutt"-ered at one point.

#6  Now, if it'd been a big-ass catfish floppin' around the cab that set the gun off, he'd have been in the running. Or not. Maybe an illegal imported invasive catfish.

#5  Florida dog would have been driving, the man naked and jumping around the cab, and the gal is normal - except she talks backwards

#4  Mildly entertaining audio of 911 call. Favorite bit's at 5:00. He tries to play the game, but eventually... "That's the stupidest g-dd-mn thing I ever heard about... shoulda just took ya in myself..."

Which pretty much sums up my feeling about every 911 call I've ever been involved in. A breath of fresh air on a balmy beachy afternoon.
