Pompano Beach, FL — Street artists
Humberto Pellegrino and Pedro Claveria were attacked by police after
surrendering for being caught spray painting train cars. According to
the artists, they surrendered immediately and never resisted or
attempted to run away. Despite the lack of resistance, one of the
officers, Detective Davis Acevedo pointed his gun at them and “fed” one
of the men to his K-9 unit, Dino.
“There was a dog and I saw an assault rifle and I was like, ‘Oh wow, I think those are the cops,'” Pellegrino told local 10 news. “We complied, we never tried to run, we never ran an inch from where we were at,” he said.
Detective Acevedo says that they refused to come out from under the train, but the men say that he is lying.
“It’s a bold lie, I came out and the first thing I said was, ‘Here are my hands, I’m sorry, I give up,'” Claveria said.
It seems that Acevedo was looking for a fight that evening, so instead of making a simple arrest or writing a citation, he became aggressive with the men, and sicced his dog on them, telling it to “eat.”
“It was him ripping into me and gnawing, I’ve never had an animal attack me that way and it felt like it was never going to stop,” Claveria said.
The dog left a deep gash in Claveria’s arm, which looked like a knife wound that someone would receive during battle.
