Hero dog takes bullet for teenager in Des Moines home invasion
 [KIRO7] The dog confronted the burglars, who beat him until he was bloody. The dog ran back upstairs.With the dog out of sight, the home invasion continued as the two burglars trashed the house room by room. When they came into the bedroom where the teen and the dog were hiding in the closet, and the teen was on the phone with 911, the dog stood up to them with the little strength he had left. He threw himself at the burglars, the teen's family wrote on a GoFundMe page, and was shot four times in the neck, leg and knee. As the sound of sirens became audible, the burglars ran away. Officers found smashed sliding door glass when they went into the home to get the teen outside safely. They also found Rex, who at first looked dead. While SWAT teams looked for the suspects, Rex was taken to the animal hospital. Posted by: Besoeker 2018-02-24 |
