## Resource

A dog named Smokey was fatally struck by a police car in Mount Isa, prompting officers to euthanize him on the spot amid claims it was the most humane option. The incident occurred during a routine police visit, with conflicting reports on whether the dog ran into the road or emerged from behind cover. The dog’s young owner, Kulaia-Gene, and her grandmother are devastated, questioning why the dog wasn’t taken to a vet instead of being shot in front of neighbors and children. Police stand by their actions, citing the dog’s severe pain as justification, while authorities have since engaged with the family to address their concerns.
