Councilwoman Dixon told the city council she has received six complaints about Dolpho in the past year. Three of the people who complained were involved with drugs. Three others were blacks who believe the dog jumped at or attacked them because of their race.
"I had received complaints from African-Americans saying they believe the dog only attacks African-Americans," councilwoman Dixon said Monday. "I think the dog makes the distinction."
Lorraine Livingston, whose nine-year-old son was bitten by Dolpho while the dog's master, Schawn Barger, was scuffling with a drug suspect, says: "That dog should be put to sleep." Expect protests from the EU's K-9 unit.
