Man 'threatens to eat' arresting officers - and their dogs

Indiana police say the man was being arrested on suspicion of stealing a car when he threatened to hunt them down and eat them.

US POLICE SAY that a man in Indiana accused of stealing a car threatened to hunt down and eat his arresting officers, their families and police dogs.

The Journal & Courier reports that 39-year-old Paul M Brock of Frankfort was charged yesterday with auto theft, resisting law enforcement, intimidation and operating a vehicle while intoxicated.

Police in Lafayette, 96 km northwest of Indianapolis, used dogs to subdue Brock during his arrest on Friday.

Police say Brock later told officers that he would hunt them down and eat them, their families and their dogs. He had a blood-alcohol content more than three times Indiana’s legal limit.

He was jailed on a $25,000 bond at the Tippecanoe County Jail.
