Kidnapping suspect found by police dog while hiding under laundry

Police dogs have good sniffers and a kidnapping suspect found that out the hard way.

The Massachusetts man had been hiding under a pile of clothes and garbage, the Brevard Country Sheriff’s Office said.

K-9 Gator, with the Brevard County Sheriff’s Office, located David Hallaman, 31, hiding from deputies inside a laundry room, Sheriff Wayne Ivey said last week, according to FOX News.

“This is Brevard County, and we don’t play,” Ivey said in a video posted to the agency’s social media. “We will send a dog in to take a bite out of crime.”

Ivey said that Cpl. Lance Behringer unleashed K-9 Gator into the room and showed Hallaman “what happens when you play hide and seek” with the sheriff’s office.

“Gator don’t play that and decided that one of Hallaman’s triceps would probably taste a little bit like chicken,” Ivey said.

Hallaman was treated at a hospital, where he received stitches for his injuries.

Hallaman faces charges of false imprisonment, kidnapping, criminal mischief, battery and felony battery by strangulation, according to FOX.

He was being held at the Brevard County Jail without bond as he awaited extradition.
