Huntington Story
53 year old, Janice Jones was shot by her dog around 10 p.m. Wednesday night in Barstow, California. Her dog knocked her gun off a seat and it discharged as it hit the ground and shot through her leg and into the side of her vehicle.
“It could have been worse,” Rye said. “The bullet hit two inches from the gas tank.”
Even though Jones needed extensive care, the situation could have been even worse if the bullet had hit in a different part of the car.
"Jones was transported to Huntington Beach Hospital via ambulance and later was transported to Irvine Medical Center," Rye said.
A spokesperson for Huntington Beach Hospital, Jim Washington updated everyone on Jones' conditions.
"Jones was treated at the hospital but gave no additional information," Washington said.
Jones’ dog, a Pomeranian named Tombo, was placed in the care of the Huntington Beach Animal Control officers.
"The dog seemed to be malnourished and had fresh cigarette burns on its forehead,"
Ngo indicated that her office would explore filing animal abuse charges against Jones.
“It could have done with a little less abuse and a few more of those pork chops,” Ngo said.
The county’s district attorney’s office was considering whether to charge her in relation to the gun accident.
"Jones doesn’t have a permit for the gun," Rye said.
