A California police officer accidentally fatally shot a teenager early Thursday morning after officers opened fire at a charging pit bull and a bullet ricocheted off the ground, the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department announced in a press release.
“It was what we’re calling an extremely, extremely unfortunate incident,” Lasd Capt. Chris Bergner said at a Thursday morning news conference at the scene.
Around 3:40 a.m. Thursday, police received a call complaining of loud music coming from the apartment complex. When deputies arrived at the scene, an aggressive pit bull charged at the deputies and bit one in the leg.
