MANCHESTER, N.H. — A city man is nursing some bite wounds after a police dog caught up to him after he ran from an officer, police said.
Steven Beland, 21, was arrested Monday afternoon following a short foot and padded paw pursuit that resulted in police dog Nero chomping on Beland's ankle, thigh and buttocks.
It began about 4:50 p.m. when Officer John Cunningham was on routine patrol and saw Beland on Montgomery Street.
The officer knew Beland was wanted on two counts of receiving stolen property, charges stemming from an early October burglary of a Montgomery Street garage. Beland, police said, twice pawned tools taken in that burglary..
