ALAMEDA – Raiders linebacker Ray-Ray Armstrong is being investigated for allegedly taunting a working police dog before Sunday’s game against the Pittsburgh Steelers.
The Allegheny County Sheriff’s Department said Tuesday that they are investigating the incident, which occurred before kickoff, in a corridor of Heinz Field. He allegedly lifted his shirt and barked at the dog as he headed toward the playing field.
Sheriffs would not identify the player directly, but Armstrong is the player being looked at.
Armstrong declined comment on the matter Tuesday at the Raiders facility. The team is not expected to comment.
