Pit bull carries neighbor's puppy away

ROCK HILL, SC -- A woman has agreed to surrender her pit bull to York County Animal Control after it allegedly killed a neighbor's dog and ran off with a puppy Thursday.

The neighbor saw the pit bull run off Thursday night with her husband's puppy in its mouth, according to a Rock Hill police report. It was the same pit bull that has killed one of their dogs in the past, the woman told police.
The report did not list the puppy's injuries.

The owner of the pit bull was upset and crying when officers talked to her, according to the report. She said she knew her dog was loose.

Since the incident, she has locked him up and plans to surrender the dog to animal control.
