  • On May 13, 2021, Twitter user @sticky_ssb shared a headline describing a strange series of events: A K-9 dog bit a cow, a deputy then tased the K-9, and the cow kicked the deputy. It's true that all three of these things happened between a police dog, a cow, and a deputy. However, a picture that had often accompanied this headline was unrelated to the incident. The strange series of events took place in January 2020 in Georgetown, South Carolina. According to WSPA-TV, the Georgetown County Sheriff's Office said at the time that one of its deputies responded to a possible burglary at around 4:00 p.m.: WSPA-TV also published a brief news segment to its YouTube channel: The burglary call reportedly proved to be unfounded. As for the picture in the viral tweet, which has also appeared on meme-filled comedy websites, it had nothing to do with the 2020 incident in South Carolina. The photograph of the police officer and the cow was from an unrelated story that took place in Germany from 2016. Its caption read as follows: In sum, it's true that a K-9 dog bit a cow, prompting a deputy to tase the K-9, and the cow kicked the deputy. It happened in January 2020 in South Carolina. (en)
