Sheriff: Coos County woman assaults man with gaff hook, instructs dog to bite deputy - KTVL

CHARLESTON, Ore. — A Coos County woman instructed a dog to bite a deputy during a domestic violence arrest Monday, according to the Coos County Sheriff's Office.

Just after 7 p.m. on February 5, a 911 called reported a domestic assault at the Seaport RV Park in Charleston.

Authorities say it was reported that Kassandra McIntyre, 30, had assaulted the victim using a weapon.

A deputy contacted McIntyre at the back of the RV park while another deputy checked for the victim.

According to CCSO, Deputy C. Sattler instructed McIntyre that she was being detained while the investigation was ongoing and to place her hands behind her back.

The woman refused to listen and reached into a vehicle, the report stated.

"Kassandra resisted Deputy Sattler's efforts and encouraged her dog to bite him," CCSO said. "The dog repeatedly bit Deputy Sattler, which caused physical injury. Deputy Smith and Deputy Sattler were able to subdue Kassandra without causing harm to her dog."

Deputies concluded that McIntyre had threatened and assaulted the victim, a domestic partner, using a 'gaff hook.'

McIntyre was arrested and charged with the following:

• Domestic Menacing
• Attempted Assault in the 2nd Degree
• Disorderly Conduct
• Attempted Assault on a Peace Officer
• Resisting Arrest

McIntyre was transported to the Coos County Jail where she was booked, processed, and remains in custody, the Sheriff's Office said Tuesday morning.

Deputy Sattler was treated for injuries by hospital staff and released.
