Man Tries to Break K-9's Neck to Escape Arrest: SDSO
NBC San Diego ^ | Samantha Tatro

Posted on 09/27/2015 4:00:09 PM PDT by nickcarraway

A man who fled from the scene of a report fight in the Fallbrook area later tried to twist a K-9's neck in an effort to escape arrest, San Diego Sheriff's Lieutenant Dave Schaller said.

The incident began early Sunday when deputies from Fallbrook responded to reports of a possible fight that may have been related to road rage. The caller told deputies a gun may have been fired and people were fighting.

When Deputy Jeremy Banks arrived at the scene, he saw a silver Mitsubishi Galant driving away with its lights off. When he tried to stop the car, it took off and a short pursuit occured.

The car, however, eventually stopped approximately a mile later and the suspect, identified as 22-year-old Felipe Cortez, fled on foot.

When deputies found him on the 500 block of Elder Street, they demanded he surrender and warned him he would send a K-9 after him twice.

Cortez ignored the orders and deputies sent their K-9 after him.

When the K-9 bit him, Cortez grabbed the dog by its collar, struck him and twisted his head. The K-9 was uninjured, but Cortez suffered puncture wounds to his lower left leg.

Cortez was arrested for evading a peace officer, delaying or resisting a peace officer, assaulting a police K-9, obstructing a police canine. He was taken to Temecula Valley Hospital for treatment and will be booked into Vista jail once he recovers.

Shoulda let the doggie have more play time more with his Hispanic chew toy. Fifteen minutes would have sufficed.

IMO it's high time we stopped allowing these Irish trouble makers to come over here if they can't behave.

I know it would be very xenophobic of me to question the citizenship status of Felipe. So I will assume that he is an otherwise law abiding citizen who is gainfully employed and an asset to his community.

I’m always amazed more police dogs don’t get injured by people with weapons.
