A SEA POINT woman was allegedly assaulted by a Metro Police officer on Tuesday last week after she requested to see his identification when he ordered her to pick up her dog's faeces. The Metro Police have been in an identity crisis for some time, having to fulfil duties across law enforcement and traffic regulation categories, while also providing back-up support to the SA Police Service when required. Playing second fiddle to the bona fide SA Police Service may have sat uncomfortably with some in the Metro Police force, and it could be that the officer who allegedly assaulted the Sea Point resident was making the first move in the formation of a new "Dog Unit" for the Metro Police. After all, if SAPS can have a Dog Unit, why not the Metro Police? The unfortunate thing, though, is that the Metro Police may have the definition of Dog Unit wrong... (Peoples Post 1st April 2008)
