MO: Man Shoots Pit Bull Attacking his Leashed Dog

"I was afraid he was going to kill Montana," Brashears said. "I shot him. I don't remember pulling the trigger, but the gun was touching the dog when it happened."

Brashears said he is unsure if he pulled the trigger or the gun went off when the pit bull jerked upward while still latched onto Montana's neck. After the shot, he said, the dog ran 10 or 12 feet and collapsed. A neighbor, on hearing the shot, came out with a handgun and pointed it at Brashears.
