A man wound up in a fight on a beach near Highway Behind the Pond on Sept. 30 after his dog strayed away to accost another man’s dog. That man kicked sand on the dog, and its owner asked if that was “really necessary.” The second man then punched him in the face twice, he told police, and the pair fell to the ground, where another beachgoer broke up the scuffle. Police gave the first man an ice pack; the second man fled east along the beach.
