SAN DIEGO (KGTV) - A man was arrested after stabbing a San Diego police dog during a chase in the North Park area.
At about 11:45 p.m. Tuesday, officers responded to reports of a man "acting like a bull" in the middle of the street near 30th Street and Lincoln Avenue.
When officers confronted the man, he brandished a knife at them and ran away, according to police.
