## Resource

A Queensland police patrol car struck a dog, and minutes later, officers shot it—claiming it was the most humane option given its severe injuries and visible pain. Bodycam footage shows the dog was badly hurt, and officers said they hadn’t seen it before impact as it emerged from under a parked car. The incident sparked public outrage, with locals protesting and one woman needing to be escorted from the scene. Critics questioned why the dog wasn’t taken to a vet, while police defended the decision as the only viable option to prevent further suffering. Both Queensland Police and RSPCA are reviewing the case, with the force emphasizing policy compliance and the RSPCA stressing that euthanasia must minimize pain and fear.
