A horrifying incident unfolded in California when a 15-year-old girl was brutally attacked by a pack of ten dogs while out jogging. The teenager sustained severe injuries and was rushed to hospital following the vicious mauling.
Eyewitnesses described a chaotic scene as the dogs, believed to be strays, suddenly turned on the young jogger. Local residents rushed to her aid, managing to scare the animals away before emergency services arrived.
Emergency Response and Investigation
Paramedics treated the girl at the scene for multiple bite wounds before transporting her to a nearby trauma centre. Hospital officials confirmed she remains in stable condition but will require extensive treatment for her injuries.
Animal control officers have launched an investigation to determine the dogs' origins and whether they had previous aggressive incidents. Authorities are warning local residents to remain vigilant while the animals remain at large.
Community Shock and Safety Concerns
The attack has sent shockwaves through the local community, with many questioning how such a large pack of aggressive dogs could roam freely in residential areas. Neighbours reported seeing the dogs in the area previously but hadn't considered them dangerous until this tragic incident.
Local officials are reviewing animal control policies in response to the attack, while dog behaviour experts warn that joggers should take precautions when exercising in areas where strays may be present.
