Thai dog fights off 'serial' rapist. Found and Contributed by a friend who chooses to remain anonymous

Bangkok - A Thai man was suffering from multiple cuts and a bruised ego on Tuesday after he got drunk and attempted to rape a dog, which fiercely resisted his advances, news reports said on Tuesday.

Police in Samut Prakan province, on Bangkok's south-eastern fringes, were quoted by the mass-circulation Thai Rath daily newspaper as saying Toryip Rawang, 33, had been drinking heavily with friends before the incident early on Monday.

Toryip was questioned by police after residents of the area notified local authorities when they saw the bloodied man walking along a road. He told police he noticed a brown female stray dog wagging its tail and "acting sexy" and pulled it into some tall grass by the roadside.

But the dog resisted, biting him on his face, chest and arms before he gave up his attempt and tried to stagger home.

Under further questioning, Toryip admitted he had previously raped three dogs from a nearby Buddhist temple, also under the influence of alcohol. He said he always became aroused when he drank heavily but did not have enough money to pay a prostitute.

Police said Toryip had been given a rabies shot and was not charged with a crime, but he had fled his home in an apparent effort to avoid the ridicule of his neighbours. - Sapa-DPA
