Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania Police are getting ready to unleash a new weapon, the motorcycle dog against burglars, muggers and purse snatchers. Ten new motorcycles, four of them equipped with K-9 carriers have been assigned to beat patrolmen who formerly worked on foot. The officers will cruise through residential districts where foot patrols are ineffective. The motorcycles are superior to patrol cars because they can slip into narrow alleys or cut through wooded areas...

...Motorcycle patrolmen will cruise at 15 miles an hour or less, jumping from the cycles or unleashing the dogs when necessary.
