(David Bell/CBC) Police say they seized two children, arrested three people and shot a dog while executing drug warrants at two houses Wednesday morning. During one of the raids at a home in the 2300 block of 19th Street S.W., a pit bull-type dog lunged at a tactical officer and bit him on the left arm. Officers tried to get the dog off and when they couldn't, shot it. The tactical team member was taken to hospital and treated for serious bite wounds, requiring more than a dozen stitches. Two people inside the home were arrested and charges are pending. A second warrant was executed soon after at a home in the 200 block of Coral Springs Circle N.E., where a woman was arrested and two children were seized. Cocaine, marijuana and cash were found in both homes and officers are still determining the exact amounts. Police said the three-week investigation into a dial-a-dope ring began following a tip from the public. More details are expected to be released during a media availability this afternoon. |
