Cops called for DV. Cops show up and threaten to shoot dogs. Cop then attempts to shoot dog and misses, hitting DV survivor. Cop gets off on qualified immunity. ACAB
8th Cir.: because officer was trying to shoot a 9-pound Pomeranian mix when he missed and shot the dog's owner instead, he did not intend to restrain owner, he intended to restrain the dog, which means there was no seizure so no 4A violation.
QI for officer.

![The undisputed facts in this case all point to the absence of a seizure. See UnitedHealth Grp. Inc. v. Wilmington Tr. Co., 548 F.3d 1124, 1127–28 (8th Cir. 2008) (reviewing de novo the “purely legal questions” left by the “undisputed” facts). Perhaps the most important one is that, as Hight concedes, “Deputy Williams fired his county[-]issued service weapon at [the] Pomeranian.” His words matched his actions, given that each of his statements was about getting the dogs under control, including ordering them to “get back!” And finally, the bodycam video shows that he fired downward toward the dog as it approached, which supports the conclusion that it was his target, not Hight. Hitting her was an unfortunate accident. See Brower v. County of Inyo, 489 U.S. 593, 596 (1989) (explaining that the Fourth Amendment does not address “the accidental effects of . . . government conduct”).](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:24vva42nxim6zbcmnozegoef/bafkreihl3vieqx3pwzqtiivrlqqxkngbahqnx4n3i2mbcmp5ouwvdonkom@jpeg)

As a survivor of DV, I fully support this statement.
"Till death do us part" DOES NOT MEAN WHEN HE KILLS YOU.
