CINCINNATI (WXIX) – A man accused of letting his dogs attack Cincinnati police officers was indicted by a grand jury Monday, according to the Hamilton County Prosecutor’s Office.
26-year-old Darryl Stowers was indicted on one felonious assault charge, as well as two additional misdemeanor charges of assault and resisting arrest.
Cincinnati police say that on March 29, they responded to 100 Craft Street around 1 a.m. after receiving reports that someone had fired shots.
Upon arrival, a woman told police that Stowers had hit her with a gun during an argument over issues in the neighborhood. Police say the woman had injuries to her ear.
When two police officers attempted to arrest Stowers, they say he ran into his house and released three of his dogs.
Prosecutors state Stowers did this intentionally so the dogs would attack the police officers.
Cincinnati police say one officer managed to tackle Stowers and got bitten on the calf by one of the dogs.
Stowers remains at the Hamilton County Detention Center on $25,000 bond.
