VIDEO: Ohio Cops Sic K-9 on Unarmed Man; Now he’s Hospitalized

Bodycam footage from the incident shows an Ohio Highway Patrol trooper along with three Canton cops requesting 45-year-old Ronald D. Wagner II provide identification and vehicle registration on May 13.

“I’m just traveling as a man right now,” Wagner, who was driving with a homemade paper license plate, replies.

“I’m staying inside my vehicle, where my rights are protected by the Fourth Amendment.”

Wagner informs the trooper he wouldn’t answer any questions.

The trooper repeatedly requests his information.

“I’m just saying I’m not here to make it a bad day or anything like that,” the trooper says.

“[If you] don’t provide me [with] things that I ask for so I can conduct my business, it can turn into a bad day, you know what I’m saying

The trooper tells Wagner he only needs to provide a Social Security number or a driver’s license.

“It’s OK if you don’t have it,” the trooper tells Wagner. I’m not going to ask you to get out of the car.”

Wagner argues about Ohio law with the trooper and asks for his badge number.

After almost 15 minutes, police break the windows to his car and release the police dog.

Wagner can be heard screaming as the dog viciously mauls his left arm as the cops standby and watch for several seconds.

Wagner has been hospitalized, and has undergone two surgeries since the incident happened Sunday.

Wagner mistakenly thought a U.S. Supreme Court ruling allowed him to legally drive without a license, which [not the case](https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/supreme-court-rules-drivers-licenses-unnecessary/).

The Canton Police department is reviewing the incident for possible excessive force.

“All use of force is reviewed and this particular case will be reviewed,” said Captain David Kurzinsky, who declined further comment, citing the department’s pending investigation.

Support our Mission

Help us build a database of bad cops

For almost 15 years, PINAC News has remained active despite continuous efforts by the government and Big Tech to shut us down by either arresting us for lawful activity or by restricting access to our readers under the pretense that we write about “social issues.”

Since we are forbidden from discussing social issues on social media, we have created forums on our site to allow us to fulfill our mission with as little restriction as possible. We welcome our readers to join our forums and support our mission by either donating, volunteering or both.

Our plan is to build a national database of bad cops obtained from public records maintained by local prosecutors. The goal is to teach our readers how to obtain these lists to ensure we cover every city, county and state in the country.

After all, the government has made it clear it will not police the police so the role falls upon us.

It will be our most ambitious project yet but it can only be done with your help.

But if we succeed, we will be able to keep innocent people out of prison.
