Stinky dog helps police smell a rat in runaways’ story
`A flatulent dog saved two girls from a Valentine’s Day rendezvous with a rape suspect.
The two New York girls, ages 12 and 15, ran away from home Monday on an overnight bus to Minneapolis. One of the girls brought the family dog, Bambi.
She told the bus driver that Bambi was her guide dog. The girls fed the dog junk food on the bus. It gave the dog gas.
Other riders complained about the malodorous mutt. The driver alerted security guards at Cleveland’s Greyhound station and guards called police.
“Of course we quickly figured out this wasn’t a Seeing-Eye dog and neither of the girls is blind,” Lt. Thomas Stacho said.’
