March 16, 2024
A South Korean man who shot and injured a stray dog with an arrow has been sentenced to 10 months in prison, the Jeju District Court said Thursday. The defendant was accused of shooting the dog with an arrow on Aug. 25, 2022, in Seogwipo, Jeju Island, in an apparent act of revenge against the dog, who the man said killed his chickens in the past. The incident made headlines after the dog was found the next day wandering around an area 10 kilometers away with an arrow lodged in his spine. "
