Bizarre WaPo story today about an ill-fated police raid in Prince George’s County that started with a mysterious thirty-two pound package of marijuana and ended with a handcuffed mayor and two dead dogs. Should Prince George’s County dog owners be worried? Not according to Sheriff’s Office spokesman Mario Ellis:
“We’re not in the habit of going to homes and shooting peoples’ dogs,” Ellis said. “If we were, there would be a lot more dead dogs around the county.”
Cats, on the other hand, are totally fair game.
