Maricopa County Sheriff’s deputies arrested a Fountain Hills man and cited him for harassment of an animal control officer in the area of Fountain Park Sunday, Sept. 7.

While patrolling in the area the animal control officer had previously cited the man for having his dog off-leash in the park.

The man accused the officer of not applying the code consistently after she did not cite him for having his dog on an extended leash on two other occasions.

The officer told deputies the man was screaming, yelling and attempting to intimidate her in a public setting.
