Lafayette man charged with bestiality

A Lafayette man faces bestiality charges for allegedly having sexual relations with a dog.

Police were called to a home on Walnut Street in Dayton on Saturday for a report of a suspicious person. Prosecutors said a woman had surveillance footage of David Arnold, 52, having sex with her dog.

According to court documents, Arnold was a previous resident of the home. On tape, he was allegedly seen engaging in several sex acts with the dog, including intercourse.

Officers went to Arnold’s residence in Lafayette the next day and it was confirmed that he was the same man in the surveillance footage.

He is charged with two felony counts of bestiality. WLFI
