POSTED: 3:19 pm PDT June 18, 2009
SACRAMENTO, Calif. -- A 4-year-old boy was bitten in the face Wednesday by the family dog, a 3-year-old pit bull.
The Sacramento Fire Department was called to the 2000 block of Quincy Avenue at about 5 p.m. and took the boy to UC Davis Medical Center for treatment.
Other firefighters found the dog in the back yard of a vacant home. Animal control officials caught the dog and took it in for quarantine.
Firemen said the father possibly tried to kill the dog. Police were called to the home, and officers discovered the father, Jose Santillan, was wanted on a no-bail warrant for DUI in San Joaquin County. He was arrested.
I wonder who gets to pay the hospital bill ?...:0/
