Officials said Osborne refused to surrender, and threatened them with a handgun, even after they used pepper spray. That's when they released a police dog.

She should be happy she isn't taking a dirt nap.

Yep. I know many cops who say that suspects are far more afraid of a snarling German Shepherd than they are of a cop with a gun.

My thoughts exactly. Every other story we hear about the police shooting someone, they had a gun and were "threatening" officers with it. Why use a dog in this case? What made her so special?

Makes me wonder what the rest of the story is...

Then how come she isnt charged with any gun related charges?

What happened to this "gun" she was pointing at them. It doesnt say in the story.

Yeah, citizens should be grateful when jack-booted theugs don't kill them.

Osborn was charged with aggravated driving while intoxicated, aggravated fleeing and a number of traffic charges
why no firearms charges?

Authorities said she did not have a gun.
