North Carolina Pitbull Attacks Police Car – Punctures All Four Tires

Just how powerful is a pit bull's bite? And how aggressive can they be? In Fayetteville, North Carolina, one police officer - and her car - found out. The officer, Sheriff's Deputy Lynn Lavallis, was called to assist a mother who said that her daughter was being chased by a pit bull in the street while riding her bike.

Although Lavallis did not see the child or the dog, she went in to the mother, Gloria Bass, to speak with her about the police call and potentially dangerous dog. While inside, Bass' pit bull attacked all four tires on the police cruiser, puncturing each.

While both a crime scene investigator and local North Carolina animal services officials reported to the scene, Bass was not charged or cited and her dog was not taken away as it had not attacked or injured a person. Bass was asked to pay for new cruiser tires.

ok now this is crazy, no injuries but the pit bull name getting smeared across the world again !!! first off i would like to say i have been raising this breed over 20 yrs,and there are no bad pit bulls just bad owners !!! dogs are only as good as their owners ! so lets not bash the breed for bad owners ! yes they are very powerful dogs but they are not by breed aggressive . they are high energy animals . high energy does not mean aggression !!!!! there are over 4 million pit bulls in america and what 2-3 times a year you hear of a attack .
