A routine arrest in Rotorua turned violent when a dog attacked two police officers at a property on Old Taupo Rd around 9.10pm, leaving one requiring surgery.
Police confirmed the person of interest was taken into custody, but during the arrest, one officer was mauled, and a second was injured while intervening.
Both were treated in hospital, with Bay of Plenty District Commander Superintendent Tim Anderson praising their courage and confirming support measures and a debrief to prevent similar incidents.
Ha ha.
Sicko
I wonder if the dog’s got shot, bet ya, if they were riding a quad bike, they would have been shot.
😕
A sausage may fix the problem
I’d never use a sausage though
My sausages come in a six pack
Which means I would be left with an odd number of sausages
Unless I cut one sausage in half
And that’s not about to happen any time soon
Lets get something straight, its not a dog attack- its a dog on its own property defending it. NZ poolice shoot lots of dogs, there are ways to mannage around dogs but they chose otherwise.Shoot my dog, I chew you.

Double standard… cops use police dogs as a weapon.
Too many unstable cross bred mongrels in NZ
