The police are gutless as they should have shot the loony in the leg at least - sending in the poor defenceless dog is a disgrace.
Well said... The dogs death saved those police .................
1) They couldn't shoot him due to the acceptable Use of Force laws. The dog was there, the dog is less lethal than a gun so they had to go with the dog first. The dogs are extremely highly trained and 99 times out of 100 would go for and get the arm holding the weapon.
2) A police dog is not classed as an officer BUT this case will be prime fascie in so far as the NSW Police are seeking a charge with equivalency to murder.
3) The only charge the perp is on at the moment, as far as the dog goes, is a cruelty to animals charge
4) He is not a loony
5) <deleted entry> Can't say, might be contempt.
