"Two male victims, while standing on the sidewalk, were approached by multiple unknown male offenders who exited a white truck," police told Fox News Digital.
"One of the offenders directed a dog to attack a 54-year-old male victim while yelling slurs," police added. "When the dog did not attack, the male offender became irate and damaged the victim's property by throwing it on the ground. All the offenders re-entered the white truck and fled the scene in an unknown direction. There are no injuries reported."
