Man Who Shot, Killed Trouble Talks
Neighbor Out Of Hospital After Pit Bull Attack
POSTED: 8:48 am EST January 15, 2008
TAMARAC, Fla. -- A man who shot and killed his neighbor's pit bull after the dog attacked him last week is home from the hospital but said he is still in a lot of pain.
Pablo Jean was attacked by his next-door neighbor's pit bull named Trouble shortly before 5:30 p.m. at 4572 NW 16th Way. Trouble somehow escaped her cage, jumped through a screen window and attacked Jean, who said he was trying to protect children playing in the neighborhood at the time.
"All I heard was screaming," Jean told Local 10's Anjanette Flowers. "I ran outside and it just happened."Jean said that when he got Trouble off him, he was on the ground. Jean said he was afraid the dog was going to go for his head or neck.
"I don't know how I did it," Jean said in describing how he shot the dog. "Must've been God. Must've been an angel. I was able to grab my concealed firearm and shoot three times."
This was not the first time Trouble had caused trouble. In November 2006, Trouble attacked her owner's father in Davie.
Jean has severe bites on his arm and his buttocks, but he said it is the emotional injuries that he might never get over.
"I'm an animal lover and I'm going through nightmares," Jean said. "It's tough."
Trouble's owner, John Brooks, wasn't home during the attack.

through a screen window and attacked her next-door neighbor.
"I seen the dog in the guy's front yard going crazy and barking at him," neighbor Fred Pulver said of the attack.
Pulver said he heard Paulo Jean tell the dog to go away several times, but Jean was mauled on both arms and his buttocks.
That's when Jean, 35, took action.
"The man has a concealed weapon's permit and he pulled his weapon and shot and killed the dog," Leljedal said.
According to the BSO, Jean used a .380 semiautomatic handgun to shoot Trouble three times. He was taken by ambulance to Broward General Medical Center to be treated for his injuries.
Trouble apparently lived up to her name and was known throughout the neighborhood. Residents told deputies Trouble could be friendly but was sometimes aggressive.
After the dog got loose, children playing in the neighborhood could be heard screaming, "Trouble is out."
This was not the first incident involving Trouble. In 2006, Trouble attacked her owner's father in Davie.
John Brooks wasn't home when Trouble got out. He said he is more concerned about his neighbor than the fact that his dog is dead.

Lol
otherwise the owner can bail him out, and this has caused at least one death in past 5 years to my knowledge.
