3:32 pm
>> santiago still has his job pending an internal affairs investigation from his place of employment. >> so his department, the department that he is in, is now investigating him and they could come up with findings that cost him his job? >> right. because what they're going to look at is did he do something wrong here by asking the cops to give him a break. is there something that he said to these deputies that broke county rules. >> dude, nobody [ bleep ]. dude, dude. >> these cops didn't give him a break, though? >> they still arrested him. they were quite calm and cordial and every time he asked, hey, give me a break, they responded, hey, we can't do that. >> well, he shouldn't have been out drinking and driving. >> he could have avoided all of this simply by calling a cab. a landslide earlier this month blocked the passage on a railway and so engineers decided
3:33 pm

3:57 pm
playground toy and they made it cooler. nick, i know you're not a fan of dogs, you're a cat guy, but i've got to be honest, this video terrifies me. this is the arm wrestling dog from hell. i think that's the title, pretty much fits what we're seeing there. that's intimidation right there. >> the dog looks pissed off. >> look at those teeth when you're looking at your opponent across the table. they're doing that? >> you back down from that. >> i'd be shaking in my boots. >> the guy in the video does do like three rounds of arm wrestling with the dog. >> and the dog is getting increasingly more pissed. >> is this animal cruelty? the dog is obviously agitated. should i reach out and say i think this is cruel? >> i don't think it's cruel. i think the dog knows this is some sort of weird game. >> it is funny when he puts the paw up there and his elbow is
