| The patio area where the pit bull escaped in order to go and attack the victim's dog |
 |
| The victim and his dog, which survived. He refused to press charges, allowing the pit bull owners to get off scott-free from accepting responsibility |
U-T San Diego reports Monday that the man was walking in the City Heights neighborhood when the dog came at him Sunday night.
 |
| The owner complains that his pit bull was only 'defending itself' despite it having escaped from its patio and running at large AND attacking the other dog |
County animal services Lt. Dan DeSousa says the pit bull retreated to its home, where the owner took the dog to a veterinarian's office. The dog died there.
The victim and his dog suffered only minor bites, and he declined to file charges against the dog's owner.
[Brilliant. Yes, don't bother pressing charges. Now, they can freely go get a replacement dog and repeat this whole horrible incident with some other victim. Good job.]
