Police: Dog bites man, man bites dog, then man is arrested
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}A New Hampshire man has been charged with resisting arrest and biting a police dog.
Police say the man unsuccessfully tried to hide under a pile of clothes to evade arrest over the weekend and then put the police dog in a chokehold and bit it on the head.
State police were asked to help deal with a shooting on Sunday in Boscawen, a town of about 4,000 residents. They say two men in a home were wanted on outstanding warrants and both resisted arrest before one exchanged bites with the dog.
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}Police haven't released the men's names. They say the man who bit the dog faces charges including resisting arrest, interfering with a police dog and assaulting an officer.
The police dog is named Veda and has been cleared medically to return to duty.
