What I suspect is that he made up the whole thing, either to cover up that he was doing something on duty that he shouldn’t have been doing, or to make himself a hero. Or both. Reading some other comment threads on this case, I’m not the only one with suspicions, and apparently cops are saying this doesn’t pass the sniff test.
Whatever it was, it involved the dog (blood on the dog). Beautiful dog. Glad he wasn’t hurt at least. Maybe the dog attacked him somehow? LOL
