SOUTHFIELD, Mich. (FOX 2) - A Michigan sheriff's deputy and corrections officer has been arrested and charged leave after the sheriff's office said he shot and killed his rescue dog and then dumped him in a ditch, all because the dog nipped him while he clipped his nails.At the Humane Society of Macomb, Rachel Gentz said the dog, named Habs, was a special pup.Last year, the Detroit stray was chosen by Blue Star Service Dogs to be trained by inmates to become a therapy dog for veterans.

Unfortunately, Habs was just too friendly for the program."He just radiated happiness wherever he went," Gentz said. "He walked into a room and just lit it up."After failing to graduate, he was adopted by Jacob Wilkinson, who was a corrections officer in Saginaw at the time.

That was a year ago.Now, in the spring of 2022, Wilkinson has been charged for torturing and killing Habs after the dog was found in a Saginaw County ditch duct-taped and shot to death.

It turns out, Habs was left there in September.The reason for the torture? Wilkinson said he was clipping Habs' nails when the dog nipped at him."There is absolutely no reason for anyone to do this – dogs have feelings just like we do," Gentz said."He then went to find duct tape.

High gas prices bring demand for fuel to record lows ahead of peak driving season
LOS ANGELES - Gas prices are so high that demand for fuel during peak driving season this summer is expected to slump, according to experts.According to data by the Energy Information Administration compiled by Bloomberg, demand for gas has hit its lowest level during this time since 2013, excluding the impacts of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. Overall, high gas prices have brought demand down by 5%.Gas prices have been hitting fresh records for the past 11 consecutive days amid the energy supply crunch in the U.S., according to the American Automobile Association (AAA), which noted that the stretch of record-high prices as the pump is "unprecedented."Speaking with Fox News Digital, Andrew Gross, the national spokesman for AAA Inc. revealed that drivers should expect elevated prices throughout the summer, especially if the war in Ukraine rages on.The national average for a gallon of gas was $4.59 last week, a slight increase from the day before and a new record high.Thursday’s record was 16 cents higher than the week before, nearly 50 cents higher than the month before and $1.55 more compared to the same time last year.All 50 states had a national retail price over $4 a gallon on Thursday, according to AAA, with Oklahoma offering the cheapest gas at $4.03 a gallon and California offering the most expensive gas with an average of $6.06.
