ANSONIA - An Ansonia patrol officer today investigated a suspicious person at about noon in the area of Lester and High Streets, Lt. Patrick Lynch said in a release.
The suspicious party entered the yard of a home on Lester Street and went around the back of the house.
When the officer went to the rear of the home looking for the male he was confronted by a German shepherd that resided at the home.
The officer attempted to back out of the yard but stumbled as the dog came towards him. Several shots were fired at the dog and thankfully the dog was not hit by any of the shots, police said.
The officer suffered minor injuries in his attempt to elude the dog. The suspicious male was found in the backyard and advised officers on scene he was just cutting through the yard to get to another location.
This is a press release from Ansonia Police Lt. Patrick Lynch.
