Death threats to Canadian cop who ran over deer.
A Lethbridge police officer who allegedly used a truck to euthanize a deer has received death threats[.]

“The police officer responded and killed the deer in an incident that was partially recorded by a bystander on cellphone video,” the news release states.

I can't imagine anyone driving over an injured animal in order to euthanize it. I'll keep an eye out for future news on this story. The compassionate thing to do, as terrible as some may find this, is shooting the injured animal in its head.
