Cops were responding to a domestic violence call on E. 184th St. in the Bronx on Feb. 13 about 5:30 a.m. when Rosado, the domestic violence victim's neighbor, opened her door to see what was going on. the video shows Spike, his tail wagging, slipping out of the apartment and barking at the two officers. One of the cops goes down a small flight of stairs before shooting the dog in the head. The video also shows the dog's heartbroken owners rush out of the apartment crying over the dog as he slowly bleeds out, his tail still wagging. "The dog was wagging his tail, looking around...notice how quickly the gun came out," Rosado's attorney David Thompson said. "Did the NYPD learn nothing from Peter Liang? Don't fire your damn gun in an apartment house stairwell unless you absolutely positively 100% got to do it. No matter where this bullet ends up, something bad is going to happen." We have a copy of the grisly video as well as a 1 p.m. interview set up with Rosado and Thompson.
