In a twist on accountability, a resident of Khon Kaen has volunteered to serve jail time on behalf of his two dogs. The canines, Damdam and Dookdik, caused a stir when they unexpectedly chased a 14-year-old motorcyclist, leading to a car accident on February 16 in Mueang Nong Ko subdistrict.

 

The entire incident, captured on CCTV, quickly went viral, drawing public attention and concern. The dogs' owner explained that the dogs, who are usually friendly, escaped through a back fence on that fateful day. He realized the seriousness of the situation only after viewing the footage online.

 

 

Local teenagers allegedly provoked the dogs, causing them to bark at passing motorcycles. Despite being unemployed and unable to offer financial compensation, the owner is willing to face imprisonment for the incident.

 

Police Colonel Prasat Naen-udon from Kranuan Police Station confirmed that an amicable settlement was reached, courtesy of the car's first-class insurance. No legal charges have been filed against the dogs. The owner has since taken steps to ensure the dogs remain securely restrained to prevent future escapes, reported The Thaiger.
