A 39-year-old woman, Veronica Polley, was arrested after her pit bull severely injured a 43-year-old man in northwest Bexar County. The attack occurred on Tuesday while the man and his wife were walking their dog in the 8400 block of Shooter Cove. According to the Bexar County Sheriff's Office (BCSO), Polley's pit bull initially attacked the couple's pet. The man intervened to protect his dog but was subsequently attacked by the pit bull himself.
The victim sustained serious injuries to his lips, chin, and cheek and was transported to a hospital. Residents in the area informed deputies that Polley's pit bull had been involved in previous attacks and provided surveillance footage of the incident. Polley is facing at least one charge for an attack by her dog that caused serious bodily injury, according to jail records. Following the attack, BCSO took Polley into custody. She is scheduled to have a court hearing in the coming weeks. During this hearing, a judge will determine the fate of Polley's pit bull by issuing an order of disposition.
