Officer Mike Babino said the 30-year-old Clarkston man was cooperative when contacted.
[Well of course he was 'cooperative'. He is a coward who fled with his dog. He was tracked down and confronted by a police officer carrying a gun on his side.]
He will be cited for the dog-bite incident and faces a potential fine of $250 and restitution costs, police said. The misdemeanor charge will be handled in Asotin County District Court.
The vet bill for the Pomeranian was $428, according to police. The small dog's owner was on a walk with her baby when the attack occurred shortly after 5 p.m. on April 3.
