Not slowing down despite finding a stray dog

[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Park Saeyan] An animal rights group reported to the police a driver who hit a stray dog on a narrow road and fled the scene.

According to Animal Freedom Union on the 17th, at around 6 p.m. on the 5th, a Starex vehicle ran over four dogs in an alley in Masanhwoewon-gu, Changwon City.

Of the four, four barely escaped, but one puppy failed to avoid the vehicle in time, got caught under the wheel, and died on the spot. Bloodstains of the puppy remained where the vehicle passed.

These dogs were a family, and the deceased puppy was involved in the accident in front of its father and mother dogs.

A resident who anticipated the accident knocked on the vehicle door to signal the driver about the danger, but the driver reportedly did not honk or reduce speed and continued driving.

The driver told the resident who reported to the police, "Why make a fuss over one dead stray dog?" and "Since the dog has no owner anyway, it's okay to report."

In response, the Animal Freedom Union filed a complaint against the driver at Masan Eastern Police Station and is conducting an online petition demanding strict punishment for the driver.

The police stated, "We have received the complaint and are investigating witnesses, etc. If it is confirmed that the driver intentionally hit the dog, charges under the Animal Protection Act can be applied."

Meanwhile, the stray dogs involved in the accident were a family of four, living under the care of residents near a place where household waste was piled up.
