Some Youths Go To Woman's House To Steal Rare, Expensive Puppies, An Insane Shootout Ensues

WEST PARK, Fla. — A South Florida woman was nearly killed over two dogs she was selling.

She got into a shootout with three attempted dog robbers Monday night, and the entire ordeal was caught on camera. The video was obtained exclusively by Local 10 News.

One of the suspects, a 16-year-old boy, has been arrested, the Broward Sheriff’s Office said Wednesday morning. Investigators believe the other two are also juveniles.

The woman said she was in fear for her and her girlfriend’s life and was forced to open fire after a group of young men started shooting at her.

A bullet narrowly missed her head and she ducked behind her car for cover.

She said she breeds exotic dogs and figured they were there to inquire about them, but she said she noticed something seemed a bit off and asked, “What the hell is going on here? As soon as I turned around, that’s when he grabbed me, and his boys got all frantic.”

One of the men grabbed the woman, holding her at gunpoint, and there was a struggle.

The trio took off with two micro bullies. They are worth about $4,000 each.

The robbers didn’t leave quietly either, shooting at the woman, which is when she goes into her home to grab her gun.
