Wednesday, April 20 2011

A Phoenix, Arizona man is suing the cities of Glendale and Phoenix seeking $200,000 and $250,000, respectively, after a dog bite incident.  According to news reports, 33-year-old Erin Sullivan was bitten by a Phoenix police dog after he ran from officers in Glendale during a burglary investigation. Sullivan alleges the dog violated his civil rights and used excessive force to capture him.  Police say Sullivan bit the dog back, injuring it.
 
Sullivan's lawyer, Keith Knowlton, further alleges that Sullivan suffered more harm when Glendale police refused to give him insulin, causing Sullivan to suffer a diabetic seizure in a Glendale cell.
 
Officials in Glendale and Phoenix have declined to comment.
