Man pepper sprayed during arrest

CANADA -- A man wound up being pepper sprayed by Barrie police after he set his dog on officers during a domestic call in the city's south end early Sunday.

Pollice were called to the residence shortly before 3 a.m. after a man assaulted his common-law wife.

During the call, police say the man set his pit bull on officers and was pepper sprayed when a scuffle broke out.
