Every year, thousands of Americans suffer from police dog attacks. Most of these people are innocent bystanders.
Children are also victims of police dog bites. Children are especially vulnerable because it is hard for them to defend themselves from dog attacks.
Police officers must carefully manage their dogs. They should ensure that they do not stray. A police dog should constantly be on chains unless it is pursuing a criminal. A police officer should ensure that the dog is after the right target.
There are careless police officers out there. These officers facilitate police dog bites against innocent civilians.
A police dog bite victim can obtain compensation so long as the person was not the target of the police because of committing a crime. A personal injury lawyer will help you to obtain compensation. That will happen through negotiation or a court process.
