Navy SEALs Investigating Colin Kaepernick Jersey Used in K-9 Training Demo

The Navy SEALs are planning an investigation after videos surfaced online of dogs attacking a man wearing a Colin Kaepernick jersey in a K-9 demonstration during a fundraising event last year.

"We became aware today of a video of a Navy SEAL Museum event posted last year with a military working dog demonstration," the SEALs said in a statement. "In the demonstration, the target is wearing a Colin Kaepernick jersey. The inherent message of this video is completely inconsistent with the values and ethos of Naval Special Warfare and the U.S. Navy.

"We are investigating the matter fully, and initial indications are that there were no active duty Navy personnel or equipment involved with this independent organization's event.
