A dog has shot and killed a 30-year-old man in the front seat of a car after it stepped on a hunting rifle lying in the back seat, Kansas authorities said.
The victim, Joseph Smith, was in the front passenger seat at the time of the shooting, which unfolded while he and another man were on a hunting trip, according to the Sumner County Sheriff’s Office.
"The stock of the gun was in the back seat, and the barrel was laying on the console facing the victim," Sumner County Undersheriff Mike Westmoreland told ABC News via email.

Something strange about the description of how this happened.
If "The stock of the gun was in the back seat, and the barrel was laying on the console facing the victim" and the victim was shot in the back, apparently they were riding is something with three rows of seating that had a console between the seats of the second row of seats, with the dog in the third row.
No mention of which dumbass put the loaded rifle in the car.
