Sciotodale Dog Attack
A Wilson Street woman contacted police to report her neighbor’s dogs were once again loose and chasing her children.
When a deputy arrived on the scene, the woman said her neighbor’s two dogs came onto her property, chased her children, and attacked her dog. The dog did not appear to be injured.
The officer was unable to make contact with the dogs’ owner. The deputy advised the woman to call the dog warden.
