You just shot me,” Hight screams. “I shot who?” the deputy asked.
Williams appeared to aim at a Pomeranian, but instead hit Hight who is standing right next to another deputy.
You shot my aunt,” said another woman. “I didn't shoot her,” Williams responds.
Yes, you did," Hight responds. "You shot me." Later in the video, Williams claims one of Hight’s dogs scratched her - instead of her being shot.
Pomeranians are man-killers! Worse than pit-bulls!
Deputy Williams is a black deputy. That’s likely why he hasn’t been disciplined, IMHO,

Shot of the Pomeranian? WTF? That’s utterly retarded. He needs to hang up his spurs if he can’t punt that thing across the yard.
Great example of DEI action!
Cops are generally fools or typed-aggrieves, most should not be armed.
Cute Can I feed it to my cat ........
Imagine the terror of being faced with a tiny dog like this!
Cops are just so brave.
Pomeranians are small, friendly, noisy dogs. An average Pomeranian weighs around 5 pounds. They are not aggressive. But they are noisy. So by all means, Mr. Policeman. Spray bullets all over the place to defend yourself from such a small dog, one that’s not even charging you.
And if you hit some innocent person, that’s just too damn bad. For the innocent person, that is.
Many (most?) cops are good guys. And yes, their work is difficult. But I’m sick and tired of watching cops behaving in a totally trash manner. No other profession has so many lunatics. Consider emergency room physicians, for example. That’s a very stressful job. But you don’t see those professionals losing control, and hurting innocents.
I’m done defending the police. I’m now police-neutral, with a negative bias.
That’s no ordinary Pomeranian! It’s the Pomeranian of Caerbannog! /Monte Python
Those Pom’s are meaner than a pit bull on steroids. LOL
The cop should be locked up in the dog pound for being stupid
Most are decent folks. A few are idiots. Please don’t denigrate all of them for a handful of fools.

Yeah, they weigh 4 to 8 pounds.
Yeah, they aren’t my idea of a vicious attack dog.
but all it takes is a good solid kick to put it over the neighbor’s far side fence!!
Some people are incapable of making critical life and death decisions on the fly. This officer is clearly one of those people. I have pulled people from duties based on how they reacted in high stress training and disqualified others who failed on the job. I have been through training where failure to qualify (shooting the hostage, failure to shoot the threat, failure in firefighting situations, etc) meant you failed to qualify, period. If the Navy can do this, then LEO can too. Shooting at a Pomeranian with people in the line of fire should disqualify a person from carrying a badge and a gun, but proper screening and training would have identified his incompetence from the beginning.
“He tried to shoot one of these little things?”
Well, it is kind of a small target.
