A man was arrested this past weekend after police pulled him over in Austin as he allegedly walked his dog while behind the wheel of a vehicle.

Video captured on May 4 shows what appears to be a large dog walking alongside a slow-moving black vehicle down a street in Austin, Texas.

Austin police told Global News they received a call about the incident at approximately 9:10 a.m. in the area of Guadalupe Street and West 15th Street, but could not confirm the exact time the incident occurred.

Local resident Reilly Campbell captured the video, and can be heard on camera remarking, “so illegal” as the car continued to drive past where she stood.
