NASSAU-Police shot and killed five pit bull dogs in Bel Air Estates yesterday.
The shooting culminated a police chase, according to an eyewitness.
It all began when police showed up at the funeral repast of murder victim Peron Bain, which was held on the park in the neighbourhood.
Bain, an alleged gang member, was gunned down in the area on May 29.
The repast attendees ran when the police arrived, and, the officers allegedly fired shots at them.
The men ran through a neighbour’s yard. However, the suspects were “long gone”, by the time the officers went into the yard, the witness said.
According to the witness, the dogs posed no threat to the officers.
The animals belonged to a dog breeder, the witness said.
