Black Man Arrested For Kicking Dog In The Head, Attacking Owner
   UNIONTOWN — A man and his dog are recovering after they were attacked and threatened while out for a walk earlier this week. Fred Hardin, 52, and his dog, Crosby, are a fixture on East Main Street in Uniontown. On Columbus Day, Hardin was off from his job as a parking lot attendant. About 11 a.m., near the courthouse, he and his best friend were taking a walk. That’s when Crosby, who was on a leash, began barking at 20-year-old Tredale Hall. Hall threatened to kick the dog. “I said that’s not polite, you know; why you want to be a punk about it?” said Hardin. Hall kicked Crosby in the head. “So I put the leash down to try to protect me and Crosby,” said Hardin. Lt. Tom Kolencik, of the Uniontown Police, says that’s when Hall attacked Fred from behind. “Pushed him to the ground, started stomping his head, yelling obscenities at him, threats, kicked him, punched him,” said Lt. Kolencik. Hall, and a teenager with him took off, but an officer soon caught up to them. - (Black-on-white) |
