I just caught the tail (pun sort of intended) of this on the news, the locals were complaining about the gun shots.....I agree it was careless to fire all those shot in a residential area but c'mon would they rather have that thing roaming the streets? It may help with the rat problem though!!!
Still seems dumb they had to kill the cat. The news thing never said the cat appeared to show agression or harmful acts towards people. Why couldn't they ahev called animal control and followed it till it was in need of being shot for safety reasons or control arrived and darted the cat. I'm not one to jump to conclusions when i dont know the whole story but im guessing the officers are glad they killed it and wanted to look like heros/be thefirst ones to kill a dangerous cat. Seems like a waste and a bigger deal was made of the situation than needed to be IMO. WCL
