SEBRING --
It's a case of dog shoots man, not man shoots dog. Well, sort of.
A Frostproof man reported to Sebring police on Feb. 23 that he was traveling in his truck when his dog kicked a gun on the truck's floor, resulting in him being shot in the leg, according to a report.
Sebring police ruled the shooting accidental, and apparently the victim was not seriously injured.
Sebring Police Cmdr. Steve Carr said police did not arrest the dog or detain the animal, pending the investigation. He said he has never heard of a case like this.

So......if they arrest the dog, would they have to read him his miranda rights? Just sayin'.
