An Iowa community is outraged after a police officer’s killing of a beloved pet right in front of its family, and the subsequent revelation that this isn’t the first pet the cop has killed in recent months.

The situation unfolded on the evening of August 21, when an officer with the Davenport Police Department was dispatched to a call in reference to four dogs running wild.

The caller stated the beasts appeared aggressive and were attempting to cross a fence to get their dog, according to a DPD statement obtained by WQAD-TV.

The statement says the unnamed officer arrived on scene and saw two children with an off-leash dog, and advised them to secure the animal.
