Must Have Been A Strange Experience For The Police...

A 29-year-old man helping police with inquiries into an alleged assault threatened to set two Alsatian dogs on them after they allowed him to go back into his home to collect some belongings.
...as it's usually the other way around!
An officer told Smith if the dogs attacked they would be tasered.
Which implies they had tasers with them. So this was no routine visit. Clearly, the chap has form for violence.
He was given a conditional discharge for four months and ordered to pay £85 costs and £20 victim surcharge.
What?! What was the excuse?
Gareth Price, defending, said his client had mental health difficulties and the two other men in the house acted as his carers.
*boggle*

Couldn't they have left the residents to batter each other, and the dogs could then have eaten any survivor(s)? Seems a neat and trouble-free solution!
