“He said to the cops, ‘Oh my God, I shot the wrong dog,’ as if there’s a right dog.”
Downtown Bellingham.
It says that David William Latham, 55, grabbed a rifle and crossed Verona Street in the Puget neighbourhood after a dog had been barking for hours that evening. He walked across to the backyard of Loyce Andrews and Cary Chunyk, where their dogs Molly and Kirby were outside having been fed.
At the sight of a man they didn't know, the dogs ran to the fence. Then, without saying a word, Latham fired one round into Molly's chest, Andrews said. Latham turned around and slowly walked back to his home across the street. The dog's owners had never met Latham before.
Police arrested him that night and the Bellingham Herald reports that he was cooperative and immediately admitted what he'd done. The police told the paper they don't understand "what caused him to snap" (Latham has no criminal history either).
