La. Police: Barking Man Bites Mail Carrier
HOUMA, La. (AP) - A mail carrier got bitten - by a barking man, police said.
Mark D. Plumb, 20, of Butler, Mo., was arrested and charged with simple battery Wednesday after he ran barking from a house and bit the letter carrier on the shoulder, police spokesman Lt. Todd Duplantis said.
Plumb said he bit the carrier as a joke, and has no history of criminal activity or mental illness, police said.
Plumb was released from the Terrebonne Parish jail after posting $165 bond.
--I wonder exactly *who* was supposed to appreciate the joke?
He's got a history of criminal activity and mental illness *now,* that's for sure.
