Los Angeles (AFP) - Oakland Raiders linebacker Ray-Ray Armstrong may have bitten off more than he bargained for after bizarrely taunting a police dog -- by barking at it.

Police in Pittsburgh said Tuesday Armstrong had been placed under investigation over an incident before Sunday's NFL game against the Steelers when he confronted a police dog prior to kick off, ESPN reported.
