Man's best friend appears to have turned on a new dad who was killed after his pooch pulled the trigger with his paw.
Such a freak accident was pronounced as one-in-a-million, a freak hunting accident that saw the new dad shot dead by his dog, it has been claimed.
Police and prosecutors are continuing their investigation into the shooting, after Ozgur Gevrekoglu, 32, was allegedly shot dead by his K9 companion while on a hunting trip together.
The 32-year-old is said to have been packing up his gear when the pooch pressed its paw onto a shotgun trigger, blasting its owner at close range.

Packing up his still-loaded shotgun into the back of his car, Gevrekoglu is said to have been killed after his dog stepped on the trigger with its paw, killing the 32-year-old instantly.
The dad of one and his dog had been hunting with pals on the Kizlan Plateau in the Samsun Province of Turkey when the chillingly bizarre incident took place.
Reports indicate that the pooch touched the shotgun trigger with its paw as the 32-year-old placed his dog in the car.
Despite the freak accident, there are some local media outlets reporting that the incident could actually be a murder.

The shotgun discharge and the freak dog-related incident saw Gevrekoglu's body transferred to Alacam State Hospital, before being transferred to the state capital of Samsun for an autopsy.
Local media cited the 32-year-old as having become a father just 10 days before his tragic, strange death.
Investigations are ongoing into the bizarre event which has seen man's best friend turn on his owner, with the Public Prosecutor's Office continuing their investigation.

Gevrekoglu had been snapped in a photograph just days before, grinning widely while holding up a string of dead birds and petting his pet pooch, which has not been named, with the other.
The freak accident appears to have killed the dad-of-one instantly, and so far it appears the dog is responsible for his death.
His death comes as the pair were packing up from a recent hunting trip, sparking rumours of foul play and murder through some local media outlets.

The NRA, upon hearing of this incident has petitioned the gun manufacturers to start manufacturing guns with triggers that dogs can easily manipulate, there being a new market available for such products, since the dogs need to have their own guns in order to defend themselves. Elon Musk is bound to not only accept all tweets furthering the request, but will post a whole bunch himself. s/
My concern is that the dog who pulled the trigger in the story above will get a fair trial, in which the jury must be selected from among the dogs living in the area. If it is lucky, the judge appointed to hear the trial will be the one who presided over the Rittenhouse trial.
Although my comments are intended bullshit, believe it or not the actual seed is the real thing.
His failure to unload the gun when he was done hunting and ready to head home cost him his life.
Sounds like suicide to me. Why else point a loaded gun at yourself?
I really don't think so. He was a proud new father who obviously loved hunting. He just was careless in not unloading the chamber and putting the gun the seat facing him. I don't think he was suicidal, just stupid and careless.
NRA psycho CEO, Wayne LaPierre said, "The only thing that can stop a bad dog with a gun. is a good dog with a gun."
He said, "many dogs enjoy squirrel hunting, so the NRA is advocating selling "squirrel guns" to dogs.
LaPierre said, "squirrels are entitled to defend themselves. The NRA is also advocating selling "dog guns" to squirrels."
Hah. Justification for my comments above. LOL
Okay. The guy is fucking dead. So he won't care if I nominate him for the "Doggy Style Darwin Award".
Rule 1. Unload the fucking gun, stupid.
So, IMO, it's NOT TOO SOON FOR JOKES!
What I meant was your illustrating my bullshit in my second comment above. "Don't take life so serious son, it ain't nohow permanent." (Walt Kelly's Pogo)

Who’s grinning now? Sounds like karma may have played a role.
