Watch golden retriever beg to play with intruder in San Diego break-in
Los Angeles Times • • nation
Key Points:
- A man broke into Dante Rowley and his fiancée’s San Diego home through an open upstairs window during a severe heat wave while the couple was out of town.
- Their two dogs did not act as traditional guard dogs; one left through a doggy door, and the other, a friendly golden retriever named Nash, tried to play with the intruder.
- The intruder appeared to take a nap and eat food from the fridge, seemingly trying to escape the heat, before police arrived and arrested him about an hour later.
- Security footage showed the man entering by hopping a fence and using a ladder, while police monitored the situation with a drone and calls to exit the home.
- No items were stolen, and damage was minimal, limited to some eaten snacks and broken outdoor pots; the couple was mainly concerned about their dogs' safety during the incident.
