Police Stories

Salesman turned Policeman

Man Who Barked at Police Dog Now Must Answer in Court

PORTLAND, Maine (AP) - A man who barked at a police dog inside a parked patrol car was detained and ordered to appear in court on a charge of taunting the German shepherd.

Johnny Mathis, 20, said he didn't mean to cause trouble when the dog, Zedo, began barking on Saturday and he barked back.

"I had finished barking. I had stopped barking, and the police still arrested me," Mathis said.

Police said Mathis and a friend started the incident by teasing Zedo with their barking. After a policeman warned them that teasing the dog was illegal, Mathis continued barking, police Sgt. Steve Plympton said.
