Urinating chihuahua causes courthouse bomb scare

An abandoned backpack outside the Central Islip courthouse triggered an emergency response on Friday after a man left it in shrubbery.



Nineteen-year-old Melvin Ruffin from Bellport said that when he was on a bus en route to the courthouse, a woman's chihuahua relieved itself on his backpack. Not wanting to go into the building with the scent of dog, Ruffin decided to leave the backpack in the bushes.
