The dog's aggressive manner prevents anyone, particularly children from approaching it. The City has received numerous complaints regarding the dog's aggressive behavior and has forwarded those complaints to San Diego County Animal Control.
This dog used to be a U.S.Border Patrol dog. It has a 'bad attitude' towards Mexicans. Hmm, I wonder why that would occur? Government training maybe.
* In May 2001, the dog bit someone who was walking along the public sidewalk.
See above.
* The dog is being held by San Diego County Animal Control. They will decide whether the dog can be returned to Mr. Northcutt.
email the hell out of these people! Blast 'em.

* Mr. Northcutt frequented the memorial prior to the 9-11 terrorist attacks. There was no observable change in Mr. Northcutt's patterns after September 11.
* Mr. Northcutt was not responsible for raising and lowering the flag at the memorial. City personnel are responsible for the flag.
Of course the City wouldn't want anyone who is not responsible for the job raising or lowering the flag! Imagine a citizen taking a City job upon themselves and putting someone out of work!
* Damage has occurred to public property as a result of Mr. Northcutt residing at various locations in the City.
Yup, some flowers were trampled. Oh Dear me.
* City Code Enforcement personnel were not present nor did they order that Mr. Northcutt be issued a citation.
This I cannot verify one way or the other.
* Mr. Northcutt was asked to leave the memorial site by Sheriff's deputies. Mr. Northcutt refused to leave and insisted on being issued a citation. Sheriff's deputies attempted to persuade Mr. Northcutt to leave the site, however, he continued to insist on receiving a citation.
Possibly so. This I cannot verify one way or the other.
* Mr. Northcutt was NOT arrested for trespassing on City property. In the process of issuing a citation Sheriff's deputies discovered that there were outstanding warrants on Mr. Northcutt. Mr. Northcutt was arrested based on the outstanding warrants.
The outstanding warrants were dismissed for 'time served.' The new citation goes before the Judge on 11/15.
* The City is primarily interested in ensuring that the dog does not harm anyone and that public property is not destroyed.
"Believe it or Not!"
* The City is respectful of all citizens and has made special recognition of Veterans and active military personnel, including its participation in an "Adopt a Ship" program with the USS Fitzgerald DDG-62 and annual Memorial Day and Veterans Day services hosted jointly by the City and its local VFW post. Following the 9-11 attacks, Solana Beach was also one of the first cities in San Diego County to install patriotic banners along a major highway through the City.
Damn good thing too!
