An Egyptian man is being sent back to his country after assaulting a police K9 at Dulles International Airport – kicking the dog so hard it lifted off the ground.
What we know:
A traveler arriving at Dulles International Airport this week is facing federal charges after allegedly kicking a police K9 so forcefully that the dog was lifted off the ground.
According to a federal affidavit, Hamed Aly Marie, 70, attacked the dog at baggage claim as luggage from EgyptAir Flight 981 was being unloaded.
Customs and Border Protection K9, named Freddie, is a beagle trained to detect illegal agricultural items. During baggage claim, Freddie alerted to one of the bags and started inspecting it. Freddie detected over 100 pounds of prohibited food products in the man’s baggage.
That’s when Marie, the owner of the luggage, walked over and began speaking with an agent.
Moments later, Marie allegedly kicked Freddie “so hard that the dog was lifted off the ground,” the affidavit states.
