A West Haven, Connecticut police officer grabbed the arm of Roderick Lewis as Lewis demanded drugs (angel dust) and reached into his waistband. Lewis then struck Officer Scott Bloom in the face. Bloom's police dog, Onyx, jumped from the police cruiser and latched onto Onyx's leg. Lewis then bit into the dog's side...and held on until Bloom eventually pulled the looney off of Onyx. Along with other charges, Lewis is charged with cruelty to animals. Bloom and Onyx were both treated for injuries. Source.
