biting back

"'Dog Bites Man,'" the journalistic adage says, "isn't a story. But 'Man Bites Dog'--there's a story."

It happens to be true. Jeffrey Sernett of Bend, Oregon sank his teeth into K-9 cop.

The incident started when authorities received a call that a man would not leave a woman's home. By the time police arrived, Sernett had assaulted his girlfriend, Bend Police Lt. Jerry Stone said....

A police dog named Amor was sent in to retrieve Sernett and bit the suspect in the leg.

Sernett responded by lifting the dog off the ground and biting him on the head, Stone said.

But this is tame* compared to the Hong Kong man who bit a dog to death.

Oh, and for once, I scooped Obscure Store. Probably only for once, at that.




*Yes, it's an egregious pun.
