Another pit bull attack reported in Omaha
OMAHA — An Omaha man was injured in yet another pit bull attack in Omaha.
The man told police he was attacked by the pit bull and bitten in the leg while he mowed his east Omaha lawn on Tuesday afternoon.
Police said the dog then charged officers who went to the scene, leading one officer to shoot the dog. It was later euthanized by the Nebraska Humane Society.
It is the fourth dog attack reported in the last week in Omaha. Last week, an Omaha toddler had part of her scalp torn off by a pit bull that attacked her, her mother and another woman and child.
