An agent with the Kansas Bureau of Investigation shot and killed a dog in Mulberry while issuing a search warrant late last week.
According to a news release from the KBI, the agency’s Southeast Kansas Drug Enforcement Task Force served a search warrant related to the manufacture of methamphetamine on Oct. 29 at 111 E. Jackson in Mulberry. While securing the property, an agent was “attacked by a vicious dog.” In self-defense, the agent fired one shot, killing the dog, according to the KBI.
Another agent was injured when two agents fell through the rotted floor of the residence. The injured agent was treated for minor injuries at Mt. Carmel Regional Medical Center in Pittsburg.
None of the occupants of the residence were arrested at the time of the warrant service, according to the KBI. Criminal charges are pending and the case is still under investigation. The Kansas Bureau of Investigation, the Crawford County Sheriff’s Office and the Crawford County Drug Task Force all participated in the investigation.
Attempts to reach the KBI for further information were unsuccessful Tuesday afternoon.
