Cops Shoot at Pit Bull During Chase
MENLO PARK -- An officer shot at a pit bull while chasing a suspect through a backyard but no one, including the dog, was injured, police reported.
Police pursued a vehicle from Highway 101 around 8:30 p.m., and ended up in the Belle Haven area, where the vehicle crashed into a parked car. The chase went on foot and an officer fired at least one shot when a pit bull emerged from a resident's backyard. No one was hit.
Police eventually caught the suspect in the 1100 block of Willow Alley, Kunkel said.
