A Lomita man was arrested when he allegedly tossed fireworks under a Sheriff’s Department mounted posse working in Hermosa Beach on July 4, police said Monday. <\/p>\n
Craig Conant, 25, was arrested on suspicion of harming, interfering with or obstructing a peace officer’s horse or dog, and possession of an explosive device, police said. <\/p>\n
Conant allegedly threw fireworks under the horses in an attempt to spook them as four deputies and two Hermosa Beach officers patrolled the Strand. <\/p>\n
The horses remained calm and deputies were able to chase and arrest Conant, said Hermosa Beach police Chief Greg Savelli. <\/p>\n
Savelli said the horses “are trained for just such antics, did not react and continued to work throughout the day and night.” <\/p>\n
Savelli said he hopes to utilize the mounted patrol next year and possibly at other events, including Fiesta Hermosa, St. Patrick’s Day Parade and on New Year’s Eve.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
