OKLAHOMA CITY -- An Oklahoma City postal worker was attacked by a vicious dog and then by the dog's owner.

The postal worker was delivering mail Wednesday near N.W. 29th Street and May Avenue. He walked up to a house and a big black barking dog barreled out the front door.

The postal worker pepper sprayed the dog twice with a spray made for that purpose. He told police the owner got mad about the pepper spray and let the dog chase him in the yard.

The postal worker then said the dog's owner pushed him to the ground.

The dog's owner was ticketed for assault and battery and failure to confine a dog.
