A Houston man accused of stabbing a police dog was on the run Tuesday after police alleged he led officers on a chase when they sought to question him over his missing father, whose body was later discovered hidden in his home’s garage.
Police say Ryan Mitchell Smith, 26, is considered a person of interest in his father's death and warned that he should be considered a public threat given his recent actions over the past few days, including charges related to trying to steal a car and attacking the police dog.
