VIRGINIA BEACH
A dog attacked a woman in a gas station parking lot this morning, causing serious injuries to her throat, police said.
Just before noon, the woman was walking across the parking lot of the WilcoHess station in the 4400 block of Princess Anne Road, when the dog jumped from a vehicle and attacked her, said Officer Margie Long, a police spokeswoman.
It took two citizens to pull the dog off her, and she suffered serious injuries that required surgery, she said.
Officials took the dog, an Akita, to Animal Control, and charges are pending against the owner, Long said.
The woman was a manager at the gas station, an employee said. No additional information was immediately available.
Which will, in turn, be the definitive proof of Global Warming.
