Really! No kidding! I’m not making this up! An actual, real-word instance of a proverbial “Man Bites Dog” story!
Excerpt:
BEND, Ore. – A man suspected of assaulting his girlfriend set two fires and bit a dog on the head as he tried to escape from police, the authorities said. . . .
“He was given several opportunities to come out of the pipe and he basically signaled with his middle finger,” Stone said.
A police dog named Amor was sent in to retrieve Sernett and bit the suspect in the leg.
Sernett responded by lifting the dog off the ground and biting him on the head, Stone said.
