On August 25, 1999, Sunnyvale police responded to a complaint by a neighbor about animals at 766 Lakebird, just off Lawrence Expressway near Tasman. The officers were invited into the backyard to take a look and saw three adult pit bulls, 33 game fowl (including roosters possibly used for fighting) and evidence that the dogs were being trained to fight.

Upon returning with a search warrant they found a half ounce of methamphetamine, four marijuana plants, several handguns and cockfighting paraphernalia. Five children were present at the time. The officers arrested 37-year-old Leopold A. Bajala, and the animals were transported to the Humane Society.
