A 76-year-old dog breeder who thought he was about to sell a French bulldog was instead shot and killed by a group of suspects who stole the prized pup outside a South Carolina KFC, authorities said.
Lee County Sheriff Daniel Simon said Lonnie Alford Ray, a father of four, went to the fast food joint’s parking lot Monday after arranging the sale of the in-demand dog when several men snatched the French bulldog’s leash and fired several shots at Ray.
He was pronounced dead shortly after he was shot.
