The husband of a Dallas assistant attorney has been arrested after a fight at a dog park led to an assault, police say.
Dale Coonrod, the husband of assistant attorney Michelanie "Mickey" Rayford-Coonrod, was captured on video hitting a camera out of Chanise Condren's hand.
The video, which was posted by Condren on both Twitter and Facebook, was recorded Monday afternoon during a fight at the White Rock Lake Dog Park.
Two arrest warrants were issued on Friday for Coonrod, 42, for misdemeanor assault, said Sgt. Warren Mitchell, a spokesman with Dallas police. (SNIP)
In social media posts, Condren identified herself and her wife as the victims.
Condren said they were at the park together when her dog nipped one of Coonrod's dogs. Condren said when she went to leash her dog and talk with Coonrod, he called her a name and told her to control her dog.
Condren said she attempted to "deescalate the situation," but said he "threatened to call the cops." That's when she said she pulled out her phone, which he knocked out of her hand.
During the fight, she said, Coonrod hit her twice and grabbed her neck. Condren said he also pushed her wife.
"For the record, I never touched this man," Condren said. "This was unprovoked. He acted alone. His wife was not present."
Condren said she originally posted video of the incident because Coonrod had left the park.

The problem with dog parks is that there are people there.
Second most unfortunate raccoon-related last name I’ve ever heard. Most unfortunate belongs to this particular Canadian politician: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matthew_Coon_Come
/also most biologists know that a ‘Coon has more of a hook than a rod. :P (sorry, couldn’t resist)
Dog parks are a disputes waiting to happen...My advice would be to avoid them like the plague.
"nipped"?
I do. I have idiot acquaintances trying to talk me into going to our local dog park. I don’t know why they care if I go or not.
They’re also worm-farms.
I am reminded of Peter Seller’s Inspector Clouseau
Does your dog bite?

I find all parties guilty.
Condren identified herself and her wife as the victims.
Just as crazy as himself and his husband.
It’s because dog parks are a a giant social park for humans. Generally for the dogs, dog parks are okay until they are not okay.
It only takes one second for things to turn very bad very fast there.
Why do some people think strange dogs want to get together to “socialize”? This had to be the idea of some leftist blockhead. Btw, there have been *many* lawsuits and disputes due to dogfights and other issues at these dog parks.
That got a chuckle out of me.
You bet, all kinds of ticks and cooties jumping from one dog to another...gak
Couldn’t separate the Coonrads from the Conrads, who is what, what is what, is the D<A a woman or coon or a him or a her? Life is SO complicated!
All she had to say to her aggressor was, “ That’s not my dog!”
I see the mutt, where’s the victim?
Ah, the old that is not my dog ploy.
I do enjoy a good that is not my dog ploy.
My rescue never took to the dog park. She’d hide behind me and refused to engage with other dogs.
Haven’t been in five years. But she loves it when I turn off the road and drive slowly past it so she can bark at all the other dogs from the safety of the truck cab.
