Burnley man tried to set his dog on police

A 31-year-old Burnley man tried to set his dog on police officers who came to speak to him about an alleged offence.

Blackburn magistrates heard the dog, encouraged by its master, became aggressive as police struggled to arrest Scott Dumigan.

And they eventually had to drag him out of the house and shut the door behind, locking the animal inside.

Dumigan, of North Street, Burnley, pleaded guilty to resisting a police officer and failing to surrender to bail.

He was fined £125 and ordered to pay £15 costs.

Catherine Allan, prosecuting, said when police arrived at his home Dumigan initially refused to let them in. They said if he didn’t open the door they would have to “put it through.”

“He eventually opened the door and was stood there with a large Staffordshire bull terrier-type dog,” said Miss Allan.

“Dumigan began shouting and swearing at the officers and when they told him he was under arrest began to resist.

“He shouted at his dog to “get them” and the animal became aggressive,” said Miss Allan.

“Even after they had dragged him out he continued to struggle and said he was going to batter the officer.”

David Leach, defending, said his client had not been charged with the matter the police arrested him for.

“He tried to persuade them he had done nothing wrong,” said Mr Leach.

“He should have gone with them but he was frustrated.

“As for encouraging the dog to attack he apologises to the officer but assures me there was never any prospect of it attacking anyone.”

I don't see any order to remove the dog from the idiot. But the courts seem to have more consideration for the wrong doer. I don't know who is worse the criminal or the Judges and Magistrates. I do believe they have stronger powers available to them, so why not use them.

Scott Dumigan = mad gits count

Consider the possibility that this man is a police officer, aware of how his fellows intended to treat him the moment he was out of cctv view. That his occupation was not given in this newspaper report is a curious omission which supports the view I have sired.

And a mother called lavinder who looks like Bet lynch is still a working girl, smokes woodbine, drinks whisky and has blue tattoos as well. She also has a full time partner called Wendy who is 22, 19 stone, has 4 kids, all with questionable parenatge, all four sit in one of them fold up pushchairs that look like a deck chair whilst they share sausage rolls for breakfast. Lavinder and wendy share a sausage roll sandwich in the afternoon when Brittney Chantelle Chardonnay and mustapha have been dumped at the nursery and Tyson has a sh1t in the back alley when scrote is at the bookies.

I think that's the same family who I know, the ones that think Sunday school is so they can get trashed Saturday night.

Inaccurate reporting. £15 is always a victim surcharge, costs are in addition to this.

Well it's obvious you don't know him them - he's a theiving, low-life little scrote and career criminal. If there was ever a good argument for forced sterilisation and state-sanctioned euthanasia, then Dumigan is it.
