In 2001, Officer Anderson was involved in an incident where a police dog was used to apprehend a suspect, resulting in severe injuries. The suspect filed a lawsuit alleging excessive use of force and failure to provide a verbal warning before deploying the dog. The case, Kuha v. City of Minnetonka, led to a ruling that the failure to give a verbal warning before using a police dog trained to bite and hold could be considered objectively unreasonable. The court allowed the lawsuit to proceed, highlighting concerns about the department’s policies on police dog deployment.
