According to the Hartford Courant, a 65-year-old Hartford, Connecticut man is suing the town of Hartford for police dog bites he suffered while being arrested for attempted murder. The man had two prior murder convictions in other, unreleated cases. The Hartford Courant reports that police were summoned to the man's house after the man threated to kill his wife, daughter, and daughter's boyfriend with a knife. Police claim that they unleashed the police dog on the man after he refused to comply with orders to get on the ground. After the dog bit the man on the leg, the man was taken into custody. He is currently awaiting trial.
