02 September 2011 [14:40] - Today.Az
An American man is suing the actor and martial arts expert Steven Seagal for allegedly killing his puppy.
Jesus Llovera wants $25,000 in compensation and a written apology from Seagal after the action star burst into his home to hunt down an illegal cockfighting ring. The raid in March was part of an episode of Seagal's reality show "Steven Seagal: Lawman" in which Seagal appears as a deputy sherrif.
Mr Llovera claims that during the raid deputies from the Maricopa County sheriff's office shot and killed his 11-month-old pet. He is also seeking $25,000 from the sherrif's department.
But officers have denied killing the dog.
"That's a fabrication. That is just a bunch of ****," chief deputy David Trombi told ABC News' Phoenix affiliate.
Mr Llovera said the raid on his home was unfounded and that he only raises birds "for show".
His lawyer told TMZ that he wants the actor to compose a written apology for his kids "for the death of their 11-month-old puppy, a beloved family pet."
