THE REAR COMPARTMENT OF THE SPORTS UTILITY VEHICLE AND RELEASED TWO (2) GERMAN SHEPHERDS AND WALKED THEM TO
TOWARDS THE VICTIM WHO REMAINED ON THE GROUND. DEFENDANT CASANOVA THEN BEGAN TO GIVE COMMANDS TO THE DOGS TO
ATTACK AND BITE THE VICTIM.

ULTIMATELY, ALL PARTIES WERE SEPARATED BY NEIGHBORS WHO HAD OVERHEARD THE COMMOTION AND FIGHTING. UPON PATROL
OFFICERS ARRIVAL, THEY MADE CONTACT WITH THE VICTIM WHO ADVISED THEM THAT HE HAD BEEN BATTERED BY DEFENDANT LOPEZ
AND DEFENDANT CASANOVA. THE VICTIM PROCEEDED TO POINT OUT DEFENDANT LOPEZ TO RESPONDING OFFICERS AS ONE OF HIS

AS THE PERSON WHO KICKED HIM AND RELEASED THE TWO DOGS IN AN ATTEMPT TO HAVE THEM ATTACK HIM WHILE HE LAID

BECAUSE HE WAS A REPUBLICAN AND HIS DOGS WERE READY TO ATTACK. THE VICTIM FURTHER STATED TO AVOID AN ALTERCATION,
HE PROCEEDED TO WALK ONTO THE STREET AND ATTEMPTED TO WALK AROUND THE DEFENDANTS. AT THAT POINT, THE VICTIM
ADVISED DEFENDANT CASANOVA STATED TO HIM THAT HE WAS NOT ALLOWED TO WALK AROUND HIS NEIGHBORHOOD AND IF HE
CONTINUED TO DO SO HE WOULD SHOOT HIM. IN RETORT TO WHAT DEFENDANT CASANOVA TOLD THE VICTIM, HE REPLIED HE WAS ON
