PIT BULL SHOT 12/28/05 C.L.
On Christmas day an unidentified San Jose woman was walking her small dog, when they were attacked by a pit bull. A police officer who happened to be driving by shot and killed the pit bull, named ‘Boss’. The incident happened just after noon in the 300 block of East Santa Clara St. The woman was walking her dog, and the pit bull was being walked by its’ owners nephew. Sgt Nick Muyo said, "Everything was going fine until the pit bull sees the little dog and basically starts going bananas.'' The woman screamed for help, and the passing officer stopped to help. After calling for backup, he shot the dog twice, killing it. Muyo said the officer was afraid the pit bull would attack the woman again, or attack other people that had stopped to help. The woman's hand was bitten in the attack, and it’s unknown what injuries her dog sustained.
