Two pit bulls attacked a man and bit off part of his nose. Fort Worth Police, Fire and Animal Control responded to the scene Thursday at the 8400 block of Star Thistle Drive.
Minutes later, Marcus called Leslie saying the dogs were attacking him. He ran down the street to get away from the pit bulls who bit his legs and hand.
“He was yelling really loud and the dogs were really vicious. We realized that there was part of his nose under our car,” Bianca Mireles said. Mireles called 911 and recorded the aftermath of the attack which shows first responders tending to Marcus as well as fighting off the dogs. Video shows one of the pit bulls without a collar lunging at a firefighter. No other injuries were reported.
