A dispute over the treatment of a dog resulted in a fight between neighbors that ended with one man being arrested Saturday, Corpus Christi police said.
Officers met with Henry Miller, 49, in the 1500 block of Caldwell Street at 7:17 p.m. Miller told police he felt threatened by his neighbor's dog and attempted to strike him with a stick he was carrying. Miller said he missed and hit his neighbor's truck.
Miller's neighbor told police his dog was tied up and Miller kept hitting and agitating the dog. When he arrived to stop Miller, the 49-year-old neighbor said Miller struck him in the chest, breaking the stick with the blow.
Police said both men were treated for minor injuries at the scene by Corpus Christi fire department medics.
Miller is in Nueces County Jail on a $50,000 bond for aggravated assault.
