Dog Bite victims near Los Angeles

In some negative dog news from the los Angeles area, a family was a attacked by a vicious dog. The five-year-old little girl was brutally attacked by the mastiff mix and she suffered multiple dog bites. The dog forcefully pulled the little girl from her mother's arms
and tossed the girl around like a toy. The minor child sustained multiple injuries which included broken ribs, a punctured lung, and multiple dog bites. The older brother wasalso attacked by these vicious animals and suffered a large laceration on his leg, which required 237 staples to close the dog bites gaping wound. The oldest of the children the eight-year-old girl also suffered injuries from the dog bites both to her arms and legs. All three of the victims were immediately rushed to the nearest hospital where they received treatment for their injuries which are very serious do to these dogs. The youngest of the children a five-year-old girl is still in the hospital and is listed in critical condition, and unfortunately is having to use a ventilator because she cannot breathe on her own. If you or someone you know needs a first rate Los Angeles personal injury attorney then I can suggest this firm. They can help not only with dog bite but also car, motorcycle, bike and bicycle accident as well as burn, spinal cord and traumatic brain personal injury cases.
Shortly after the brutal attack, the dogs were spotted and found still roaming the neighborhood by a passing police unit near
their home. One of the vicious dogs was killed by a gunshot after it turned to attack one of the officers. The four other dogs were taken into custody and taken to the local animal shelter. The animals
are under quarantine, while caretakers at the shelter are trying determine if the remaining dogs have rabies, and whether they should be euthanized. The owners of the vicious dogs reportedly
were cooperative with the police officers, and could possibly face citations for failing to provide adequate accommodations to ensure their pets were confined to their yard. Although the owners of the dogs were not cited at the scene of the crime. However, someone will need a good personal injury attorney up in there.
