SHEEPSHEAD BAY, Brooklyn (WABC) — Police shot and killed a dog Friday night after the animal bit an officer responding to a report of an assault in Brooklyn.<\/p>\n

Police arrived just after 10 p.m. to a reported assault at an apartment building near Ocean Avenue and Avenue S in Sheepshead Bay.<\/p>\n

Officers were told that a 34-year-old man assaulted a 31-year-old woman. After police took the man into custody, officials say a dog inside the apartment bit a female officer in the leg.<\/p>\n

The female officer’s partner, a man, then shot and killed the dog.<\/p>\n

The two officers were taken to NYU Langone Hospital Brooklyn for treatment. The female officer is being treated for the dog bite while her partner is being treated for tinnitus, or ringing in the ears. Both are expected to be fine.<\/p>\n
