© Caldwell Police DepartmentCaldwell Police body camera video of dog shooting
On August 18, two Caldwell police officers went to the home of Crystal Holden and Alinah Stelly to serve Holden with a warrant. Instead of just serving the woman with a warrant, however, one of the officers killed their dog. The incident was captured on both of the officers' body cameras.
As the video begins, Alinah Stelly is talking with the officers.
"What is this for?" asked Stelly.
"I've just got to talk with her... for some follow-up," replied the Caldwell police officer.
Stelly then agrees nicely to go get her sister to talk to the police. As she turns in to retrieve her sister, Stelly pushed on the door to close it.
However, after Stelly attempted to close the door, so her dog didn't go out, the officer on the right pushes the door open again.
