A woman was injured in a dog attack that unfolded in Stockton earlier this month. On April 23, emergency responders rushed to the levee near Carrie Street when reports of the attack came in. Thankfully, her injuries were significant but not life-threatening; she was quickly taken to the hospital for treatment.
Meanwhile, local authorities are on a mission, having captured two of the dogs involved, while the remaining suspects—a group of five to six unruly canines—are still at large. The Stockton police are actively urging residents to steer clear of these dogs and to report any sightings they may have to Animal Services. After all, whether you’re a dog lover or a little fearful, you have to admit, this kind of canine caper is not something one usually expects on an afternoon stroll!
Stay vigilant, Stockton residents—who knew the biggest threat on your walk would be a furry gang lurking nearby? Let’s hope we get those pups corralled soon!
