KIFI By Talgat Almanov ATLANTA, Georgia ( WANF ) — A former Alpharetta Police officer accused of letting his K9 attack a man during an arrest has been charged with multiple felonies. In 2021 Travis Moya sustained severe dog bite wounds after he was slammed to the ground and bitten by the K-9 during an arrest when officers responded to a mental health call. According to Moya's attorneys, the indictment is believed to be the first in Georgia for a K-9 attack. Former officer Michael Esposito's attorney said he was indicted on Tuesday and is charged with aggravated assault, aggravated battery, and violating the oath of office.
