A woman trying to protect herself from an alleged dog attack instead got bitten by a human.

The incident occurred on the Goldenrod Trail at the Anthony Chabot Regional Park in Oakland, California, on Thursday, January 3. The runner attempted to defend herself when a dog reportedly attacked her on the trail by spraying it with pepper spray.

Then, the dog’s owner approached the runner, and “a physical altercation ensued,” according to an alert by the East Bay Regional Park District Police. The dog’s owner bit the runner, a police spokesman told Runner’s World.

The suspect also tackled and punched the runner before biting her in the forearm, according to NBC Bay Area. The runner shot a video on her phone of the suspect as she walked away.

Dog owner on bath salts, anyone? Or was she actually clothed?

DANG!

Should have pepper sprayed the puke off-leash dog walker too.

Next time honey, carry a pistol. A .380 ought to give your assailant (canine or human) a good does of incentive.

I guess it was just her day to get bitten. One way or another. It’s hard fighting fate

[IronJack]

Oakland? Feral activity? Need I ask?

“The runner shot a video”

Too bad it was not a gun rather than a cell phone video.

Ooooooooo, that won’t buff out.
Probably no stitches, but a tetanus shot will be needed, plus a course of antibiotics for 5-7 days.

Ruger Coyote Special in honor of Texas Governor Rick Perry, who used a Ruger LCP to shoot a coyote while out jogging.

I doubt it.

We had a little Shepard mix who sounded like a 90 lb killer behind the door who became a tail wager when a human was revealed. So I made a sign. The dog is friendly Beware of Owner.
