NEW YORK -- A man in Lindenhurst - who said he was attacked by a pit bull - is blaming Babylon Town officials for not doing anything about the dog despite its aggressive past.
That's according to a recent report on News12.com.
Robert Favuzzi says he went to a friend's house for bible study in August, the report said, and as he got out of his car, he was attacked by a white-and-brown pit bull.
The said report the dog charged at him from the house next door. According to the report, it bit Favuzzi in the hand, breaking two of his fingers.
Favuzzi says "a miracle" prevented the dog from injuring him further: a rope around its neck got caught on Favuzzi's car tire, the report said.
He took the dog's owner, James Foster, to court for damages, where he discovered he's the third person to be bitten by the same dog, according to the report.
In the same report, Favuzzi's lawyer says the Town of Babylon should've at least informed neighbors of the dog attacks.
