Now it seems like that dog was just a victim of profiling. > Cops are still investigating the freak accident … and also reminded folks it’s illegal in Nebraska to travel with a loaded shotgun inside a vehicle. And not to mention, extremely stupid. I don’t see any mention of the gun owner getting in trouble, but they really should. People say you should crack a window before you leave your dog in a car, maybe they should also say unload your firearms. ---
