Pinellas Park police officer performs daring doggy rescue on Interstate 275
It was a terrible sight to witness for anyone, but especially for an animal lover like Officer Joseph Puglia of the Pinellas Park Police Department: a dog that had somehow got loose on Interstate 275, one of the busiest highways in the Tampa Bay area, and was struck by a truck.“I saw his body slide across the road and he wasn’t moving,” Puglia told The Epoch Times. “My heart sank because I thought he was dead.”
