COVINGTON, Okla. (July 28) - A Garfield County sheriff’s deputy shot and killed a pit bulldog that witnesses say attacked this town’s mayor and a little boy during a rampage with another dog.
Mayor Jim Postier, who is also an animal control officer, was hospitalized Friday after the dogs knocked him over and he hit his head on the asphalt road, authorities said. Postier was flown by medical helicopter to St. Anthony Hospital in Oklahoma City, where he was treated for a cracked skull, his son, also named Jim Postier, said.
The boy who was menaced by the dogs was not injured.
An Arnett woman who was visiting a relative said she and her teenage children were held hostage behind a chain link fence for several hours while the dogs terrorized the area.
Denise Kibbe said a young boy, about 6 or 7 years old, was playing across the street when the dogs started running toward him. The boy tucked his knees under his body and put his hands over his head and sat still.
Wow. What happened next? Did it work?
I love the tagline.
