Witness claims postal carrier shot dog

"Authorities are trying to find out who shot Jack the Chihuahua. "From the way that the neighbor described it, he basically pulled out an air rifle or a BB gun of some kind and just shot at the dog until my dog started yelping," said Tiffany Gorseth, who said the dog is recuperating at a veterinary clinic from an eye injury. A witness told Greer police that a U.S. Postal mail carrier shot the dog outside the Greer residence on Tuesday, according to a police report of the incident, which occurred sometime between noon and 4 p.m. But Greer police spokesman Lt. Cris Varner said that after an animal control officer spoke with a different witness today, "We do not believe it was a postal carrier."
