Dog thrown out lands on man (Reuters) Updated: 2006-07-28 10:35 A man was bruised but alive on Wednesday after a
Saint Bernard dog thrown out a two-story window landed on him as he was walking
down the street in the southern-Polish city of Sosnowiec.
The 110-pound dog was pushed out of the window by its drunken owner Monday,
police said.
"The dog had a soft landing because it fell on a man," said police spokesman
Grzegorz Wierzbicki. "The dog escaped with just a few scratches."
"The man was also more in a psychological state of shock than physically
hurt," Wierzbicki added.
The one-year-old dog, named Oskar, was placed in an animal shelter while
police investigate its owners for animal abuse.
