It’s a great day when our heroes in law enforcement “take a bit out of crime.” Frequently, the canine members of a police unit will produce heroic examples of in the line of duty valor. However, one K9 pooch in Florida may have gotten confused about who the bad guy was.
But then again, maybe it wasn’t. After reading an account of the disturbance in question, this dog was quite possibly smarter than we think. Spring break revelers are prone to getting a little rambunctious. Crazy antics and spring break seem to go hand-in-hand.
Sometimes, law enforcement must step in to restore order. Buckets full of booze and a few hundred stressed coeds can be like a powder keg. But sometimes things really aren’t as chaotic as they’re made out to be. That appears to be what caused a “K9 clamp down.”
A young bikini-clad spring breaker is the key figure in the story, besides the dog. The young coed, apparently, was taking her revelry to an unacceptable level. One woman was handcuffed, while a second male officer was shouting at a second woman.
“You wanna go?” he screeched. At that moment, a male bystander attempted to defuse the situation. The officer’s K9 dog was nearby. The bystander raised both hands in an effort to calm the situation.
For seemingly no reason, the officer, apparently a sergeant, throws the man to the ground. As he tries to handcuff the man, who did nothing but try to peacefully intervene, his K9 starts to bite him. The officer had to fight off the dog while attempting to put the handcuffs on.

Witnesses could be heard telling the police officer that the man he was holding down “didn’t do anything.” It appears the dog had a keen canine sense that something was wrong here. Bystanders agreed with the dog.
One person pondered if the dog would be placed on “desk duty.” Another suggested the heroic pooch “get a raise.” It was certainly a strange twist of events. Records released concerning this year’s spring break indicate the officer may have overreacted due to ongoing stress.
To date, there have been 161 people arrested. An alarming total of 75 guns have been seized. Panama City law enforcement has enlisted the help of neighboring police units to help deal with the larger than normal spring break crowds.
At a recent news conference, Panama City Beach Police Chief J.R. Talamantez said, “The crowd that has been here this weekend, there are no words that can describe the way they have behaved themselves, conducted themselves and the amount of laws they have broken.”
So, maybe even the dog was confused by the overwhelming situation. Nevertheless, in its attempt to “take a bite out of crime”, this K9 took a bite out of his handler. Nonetheless, this will be one spring break story witnesses will certainly have to tell their grandkids.
