In Upper Styria, an official animal inspection escalated on Wednesday: Twelve sled dogs were to be removed from a 61-year-old because they were housed in kennels that were too small. The man then freaked out completely…
On Wednesday morning, representatives of the Bruck-Mürzzuschlag district authority and a police escort knocked on the door of a 61-year-old dog owner in Seewiesen. The man is said to have kept twelve sled dogs in kennels that were too small, contrary to an official order. Officer seriously injured Apparently, the Upper Styrian was not very pleased with the visit from the authorities and did not understand. When animal rescue tried to get the dogs out of the kennel, the dog’s owner became aggressive and refused to move out of the way. Suddenly he tried to hit a police officer and was knocked down by two officers. Because the man continued to rage, police said he had to be handcuffed and anklecuffed. One officer suffered serious injuries to his finger. From the police car to the ambulance On the way to the police station, the rioter complained of chest pains, and the police called the rescue service. The 61-year-old was taken to the hospital and admitted to the hospital. Since the man also lawfully owns a pistol, it was taken away from him and a temporary weapon ban was imposed. He is also reported at large. The dogs that were taken away were housed in two animal shelters.
