Man drags his dogs with car, police say

[stevedeshazer]

Police say the 9-1-1 call from Portland's Marshall Park neighborhood Sunday afternoon sounded beyond belief: A guy driving a green Subaru Outback, dragging two bloodied and panting dogs down the street.

<snip>.

Shortly after 5:30 p.m., officers found Sean A. MacComb standing next to his car in a driveway in the 10700 block of Southwest 11th Drive. Two cablelike leashes and dog collars covered with "a copious amount of blood" were still attached to the back bumper, police say.

The two adult dogs, a black Labrador-Rottweiler mix and a brown mastiff-shepherd mix, are expected to survive their injuries. They were being held at the Multnomah County animal shelter in Troutdale.

MacComb faces a felony aggravated animal assault charge, and misdemeanor charges of second-degree animal assault and driving under the influence, police said.

I despise people who abuse animals. What a jerk. Once he's had a fair trial, that is. Okay, he still must be a jerk.
