What are you supposed to do while a police dog is biting you?
20-year-old Christopher Cevilla says he was already being detained when police in Humble, Texas sent a dog to attack him.
Now Christopher faces 3 felonies: assaulting an officer, retaliation, and interfering with a police animal for allegedly grabbing and pushing the dog’s head while he was being mauled.
Humble police are, of course, investigating themselves.
Weaponizing dogs against Black people is an American tradition, from slave catchers to police attacking civil rights protesters.
The system counts on their voices remaining unheard. Help us make sure that doesn’t happen.
