An Orlando Police Department dog mangled the arm of a 12-year-old burglary suspect during an arrest last week, sending the boy to the hospital for three days and adding to ongoing concern over whether deploying dogs on juveniles constitutes excessive force.
The OPD incident report from June 4 states the boy had pried open portable classrooms at Shingle Creek Elementary School and started running after officers told him to stop.
But two other minors, also charged in the burglary, saw the whole thing and said the injured boy had already dropped to his knees in compliance when the dog lunged at him, family members said.

You play, you pay.
If the kid had been me, my father would not be trying to sue everyone and drum up pity for me.
I was raised that if I screwed up and invited the attention of the cops, it was too damn bad.
Don’t call home.
Don’t ask for bail.
And I grew up to be a person who does not break the law because I *knew* it was my choice and my responsibility to stay out of trouble.
Blood simple.
That dog was trained to simply “hold”.
Mine are not.
What if he had broken into *my* house, instead?
I hope the kid heals up and wises up and that the taxpayers offer no profit for poor parenting.
If you cannot trust the word of his two fellow thieves, well, who *can* you trust?
Beat me by thismuch.
:D
Agree, but unfortunately most people today are not like you. In fact the parents will probably be doing talk shows with their attorney and criminal child and become the latest torch bearers against doggy police brutality.
They’ll suggest putting helmets on them with jaw guards so their teeth can’t actually touch anything.
I don't even believe politicians when they tell me they lie.
My dad would have kicked my ass and I would have deserved it.
Times change and rarely for the better.
;D
“It was the criminal’s attorney who told ya the sad tales of cruelty and how much severe extensive damage was done to the poor victim.
That’s not in the article.
What is in the article mentioning the attorney is that he “has to return to the doctor every week” and mentions of “nerve damage”.
The diagnosis and length of stay are verifiable. Are you saying that you know that the kids attorney made that up? Are you saying he didn’t spend 3 days in the hospital?
If you’re going to go down that road (and you did) you have to be more specific and not just make implications.
I’ll help you out here - What you seem to be saying is that the kid/criminal got a “standard” police dog bite and the attorney had him hospitalized for 3 days so that he could file a frivolous case against the police.
Is that what you are saying?
Don’t dog me, man!
OFFS....this is at least more punishment than most of the bad seed juvies will ever walk away with. Be glad he got SOMETHING that might deter him from preying on decent society! The slap on the wrist he would have otherwise gotten would have been a badge of honor, not a deterrence.
Did you verify everything the attorney said about the condition of his new found client? No you didn't.
You just ran with what the reporter parroted about what the attorney said about his new found client$$.
Attorney's embellish, inflate and exaggerate everything about their poor helpless clients. Attorney's will lie their asses off to your face man.
How is it possible you can be this naive?
Get back to me when ya send in an neutral, non-biased 3rd party physician to examine what's making your heart bleed.
BTW Mr. Engineer, what I've said here is crystal clear, if ya want me to repeat it all for ya, I will accommodate ya.
Lemme know.
Here's the excessive force attorney you're getting all your information from. He looks pretty slick huh?
Can ya see the dollar signs in his lying eyes Mr. Engineer?
Do you have any information to contradict the reported facts, namely the kid was hospitalized for 3 days, and it was because of an injury sustained by a police dog?
If you do, then please post it. If not, stop ranting.
Post what info you have that directly contradicts reported facts. If you have nothing, which is to be assumed since you’ve provided nothing, then your input is not needed.
Do you have any info that contradicts what is reported in the article, and not attributed to the lawyer? This would be info that contradicts the reported Length of hospital stay, and nature of injury?
You can provide this if you have it.
Facts? Ya mean the the facts you're getting from the defendants attorney?
Ya see that fist he's holding up? He's describing how he grabs money from his clients and the tax payers.
So just like the attorney, you have no actual information on this case to contradict reported facts that the kid sustained an injury from a police dog bite that required three days of inpatient hospital treatment?
Is that correct?
Gezzuz...No not like the attorney.
Attorney's are not neutral, they're biased and are a mouth pieces for their own commissions. They're not out for the truth, they're out to win big settlements to line their pockets. They totally embellish things like injuries. It's their job man.
This is not complex.
“This is not complex.”
No. It really isnt. You have no information to contradict the reported facts of the story regarding injury and length of hospital stay.
So you are being pointlessly intransigent about you being full of crap.
If you have info contradicting the facts directly, I’d be interested in hearing it.
You apparently dont, so you are flying off on philosophical tangents and waxing pointlessly about things that are unrelated to the facts I keep asking about.
So we are left with a kid criminal with a severe enough bite from a police dog that he had to spend three days in the hospital. That is not OK if it is true.
