Minneapolis Police Officer Michael Mays body cam footage shows the he is approaching the back of the house with his weapon drawn, before backing away as one of the dogs comes into view from the side of the house.
The dog is seen running toward him with his tail wagging, while the gun is trained toward the animal. The dog, Ciroc, then stops and turns to the side, still wagging his tail, as the Mays continues to back away.
Ciroc then begins to walk toward the officer, tail still wagging, before Mays fires a shot and strikes the dog. The second dog, Rocko, then runs toward him, and he shoots Rocko, too.
The audio then kicks in, and Mays is heard saying, "Yeah, I dispatched both of them." He then holstered his weapon and climbed over the back fence.
