73-year-old man tries to bust his dog out of jail while on a lawnmower - LOL

HYDRO, Okla. — An elderly Hydro man landed in jail after springing his prized pooch from the town kennel.

Instead of paying a $100 fine for not having his poodle on a leash, 73-year-old Edwin Fry decided to bust Buddy Tough out, driving his lawnmower to the city pound Oct. 13 and breaking into the cage with bolt cutters.:lol:

As the pair escaped, police officer Chris Chancellor intercepted them.

"I've been in law enforcement 20 years, and this is the first time I've known of anyone that has busted a dog out of jail," Chancellor told The Oklahoman.

Fry spent several days in jail, and faces a municipal charge of allowing an animal to run at-large.

Good question...all the article said was that they had received "numerous complaints about the dog", so idk what's up with that.*shrugs*

I was getting a good laugh reading this until I got to the end and the dog was put down. Why the **** would they do that?:cry:

That last line made the entire story not very funny at all.

Idk...you would think they could have listed some of those "numerous complaints" about the dog, but they didn't put any in the article.

:lol: Hilarious, that town is just a couple hours away from me, poor dog though.

An elderly old man tries to free his dog from imprisonment, a dog that is probably his life companion and only friend, and this man winds up in jail while his dog winds up dead. God bless America.

▲ Damn you, you got me. :cry: ▲

I can understand why the man is in jail. However, why on Earth was the dog killed? :?MistressMinako

▲ They killed the dog? I'm angry. ▲:evil:

So, they locked him up and killed his dog for a $100 fine that he probably couldn't pay because even at his age he has to work to stay alive and throw him in jail and kill his dog and how he went to such drastic measures to get his dog, might indicate that it was a major part of his life that helped him going and now his life, what is left of it, is ruined.

Sounds like the police in that town have too much time on their hands.

talk about a bad idea. What was the prupose of teh lawnmower...?weezyfb

Good question...no car, maybe no license.:P

That cop had to have heard him approaching.:lol:

I know this has been said.. but... did they really have to put the dog down? Really? ... Thats just sad. And I feel bad for the old guy, he just wanted his best friend back. :( now mebby hes gonna die from sadness cause hes best friend was put down v_v. im dissapoint. xhellcatx

I see a hungry lawyer in his future, though.
