A Grand County Sheriff\u2019s Office K-9 officer bit a Granby man twice during an incident in which the man allegedly obstructed an officer during a traffic stop and resisted arrest.<\/p>\n

Around 9:30 p.m. May 16, a Grand County Sheriff\u2019s deputy was conducting a traffic stop on US Highway 40 outside Granby when James Snapp, 36, pulled up behind the deputy and yelled at the deputy for blocking the road, according to the arrest affidavit.<\/p>\n

The affidavit claims Snapp interfered with the traffic stop before speeding away and almost hitting the deputy. Granby police then tried to pull Snapp over in town, but he continued to his house.<\/p>\n

The affidavit says that, at Snapp\u2019s house, officers asked him to come out from his fenced yard multiple times without compliance. A sheriff\u2019s deputy told Snapp if he didn\u2019t come out from his yard, a K-9 officer would be deployed.<\/p>\n
