A barking dog woke a homeowner out of his early morning sleep Wednesday. After grabbing his gun, the homeowner went to check and found a naked man outside choking the family pet.
When the homeowner tried pulling the naked man off the dog, the culprit quickly turned around and began biting the homeowner.
That’s when the homeowner used his gun, Miami Police said.
“The person was naked, on the front porch choking his dog,” said police spokeswoman Napier Valasquez. “That’s when the resident shot him in the foot.”
The injured man, who was identified as Jeffrey Delice, 20, was taken to Jackson Memorial Hospital and treated for his gunshot wound.
But before he could be taken for treatment, Delice scuffled with the police officers who were called to the scene.
Delice faces was burglary with an assault, resisting arrest with violence, lewd and lascivious behavior and animal cruelty charges.
Delice, 20, has been arrested twice before, but never convicted.
It’s unknown what he was doing on the porch of the home at 175 NW 56th St. Delice lives a few miles away, at 407 NW 84th St., Miami.

Delice needs to be convicted this time around. A dog? who does that?
