Lewiston Police Shoot Vicious Pitbull

Robert Clark had to choose between a cellphone, an ax or a chain saw when a pit bull charged him Monday. He went with two out of three - calling police with the phone and fending off the dog with the ax. The attack ended with a Lewiston police officer firing two shots at the dog, hitting it once in the hip, said Lewiston Police Capt. Tom Greene, and the dog’s owner turning himself in to the Nez Perce County Jail for a warrant for failing to appear in court for a March dangerous dog citation. But Clark said there were tense moments before police arrived and the dog opted to charge a better-armed officer instead of the 52-year-old man with an ax /William Spence , Lewiston Tribune.
