Sweat said his granddaughter told him that the teen called for the dog to come to him, then began hitting the dog with the bat.

That's not what I'd call self-defense.

I don’t either but what the granddaughter said can’t be proved. I DO believe her. My point was that the officials statement is not logical as the kid would have had to be carrying the bat. Wonder if the kids parents have influence etc.
