Okay, um, you ran a call a couple days ago on the 27th.
00:04
It was an APD assist.
00:07
A loose dog attacked and killed a small dog, and a person was bitten in the process.
00:15
Ten four, yeah.
00:16
Yes, I remember it.
00:18
I'm just wondering, I know the person got bit trying to break it up during the attack, but what happened? How did the dog attack the other dog? Was the smaller dog loose? Was it a dog park? Where did this take place?
00:38
So if it's the recent APD assist that I had for that incident, same situation.
00:46
The pit bull was loose, it was a stray, and neighbors said that the smaller dog was outside as well.
00:56
That was just from what I gathered from neighbors, not the actual owner of the dog because they had rushed the dog to the hospital.
01:05
So I am unaware if the smaller dog was loose or what the case might have been, but that's what I'm looking for.
01:13
I'm assuming based on them saying that they let the dog out to go to the bathroom.
01:21
Okay, 10-4.
01:22
And when you got on scene, you said you know the owner and then they were gone?
01:27
They were gone with the dog.
01:31
Did this incident take place out in the street? Where did it take place specifically? Before I call this woman back, the victim dog owner, I'm just curious if in fact...
01:41
It would even qualify for a vicious investigation based on the injured dog being off leash.
01:49
Correct, yeah, it happened.
01:52
It happened on the sidewalk, near the grassy part by the sidewalk.
01:59
So not on the street, but very close to the sidewalk.
02:04
Okay, definitely out in at least the front yard area.
02:08
Not fenced, it didn't break.
02:09
Like into a fenced backyard where this dog was potentially secure.
02:13
As far as you know, correct?
02:15
Yard fence or anything like that.
02:18
Ten four. Do you know, did it happen in front of the injured dog's owner's house or no?
02:23
The dog owner and dog were visiting from another city, staying at a relative's house.
02:31
So it happened in front of the relative's house.
