Sattahip police attempting to arrest a suspected drug user first had to fight off two dogs protecting their owner from officers.

Sagnad Sungrandorn, 57, was taken into custody at his Ban Chang home Jan. 23, but not before bangkaew dogs Ong-ree and Bogi viciously tried to attack officers. Police eventually moved the dogs to a bedroom and they cuffed Sangnad.

His arrest came after another accused drug user, Wisanu Phutha, pointed at his Ban Chang neighbor as his supplier.

Police said Sagnad admitted to using methamphetamines for 20 years and now buys three to five tablets a day. He accused neighbor Anurak Tawarawong, 39, of being his dealer.

Anurak currently is a fugitive. Sagnad was sent to a drug-rehabilitation camp.
