CHICAGO (CBS) — A 57-year-old woman is killed after being attacked by a pit bull on Chicago’s far South Side.
It happened near 101st and South Calhoun around noon Saturday.
Police said when officers arrived at the scene, the dog charged at them. Both officers fired their guns killing the dog.
The victim was taken to the hospital where she was pronounced dead. The dog bit her throughout her body, including her neck.
Police are still investigating. It’s unclear where the dog’s owner was.
CBS 2 has confirmed the woman’s name is Karen Brown. Her nickname was “Punchie.” pw South Side Woman Killed By Pit Bull

According to a family member, there will be a vigil at the scene of the incident Sunday at 6:00 p.m.
Maybe and if they had the right influence in their lives they would still be cute.
What you clueless dog-haters don’t get it the problem is not at the end of the leash. The problem is at the other end.
I would applaud efforts to make sure all dogs had a good home life and were not abused but to blame the dog and act like the human owners are innocent is sheer ignorance or intentional denial.
To come here everyday and spew this nonsense is nothing less that a slap in the face insult to those of who do treat our dogs right and make sure they are safe from vicious humans like those on a Jihad posting in these hate threads.
Don't forget to do something about the dogs after the owners are dealt with.
Are they on a hate-filled Jihad to get them banned? No. Then there's no comparison.
Thank you for your remarks. I am not, however, Chet99, or Chet99 2.0.
I understand that it may appear that I focus completely upon one subject.
I do post upon other threads, but it is important to tend to one’s own first. If one does not, then one cannot answer the questions from others curious about the primary post.
Poor thing. Your mommy didn’t love you and dropped you on your head so many times you now don’t have the capacity to learn. Stuck on stupid. Poor thing.
Gruesome humor, but yes.

So what is your point? Those who love, care, and protect their pets are somehow like the Nazi’s?
You just invoked Godwin’s Law and lost this debate.
Yeah; let’s do that with guns, knives, straws, saran wrap, anything that has the potential to kill.
All that would be left in your home would be the furniture and then only if you could prove it could not be a weapon.
Is this an anti-dog thread or a pro gun control thread? The way some of you talk; it’s hard to tell.
You are deranged. Your hate is a form of insanity. Pot meet kettle.
It proves nothing.
Pits are bred to kill. It’s their nature.
Most don’t but far too many so that it’s an issue because it’s happening far too frequently to be a coincidence.
Here, there are some photos of what that “wonderful” breed has done to folks at this site.
Just like a liberal. Accuse others of fear of something because they oppose it.
No different thant people accusing the right of islamaphobia or homophobia for opposing islam or gay *rights*.
You learned the mantra well.
Definitely a one-trick pony. The really really small kind.
Then post the articles when it happens.
If you ever had to face down pit bulls you might have a clue why some folks continue to warn about them.
However, pit bulls are not like guns in that the gun is an inanimate object and the pit bull can choose to act on it’s own whether the owner likes it or not.

If it were the owner and not the dog, then we’d see equity in dog bite and dog attack statistics across the board and we don;’t.
It’s the dog.
It’s bred to fight, attack, and kill and it does. It does what its nature inclines it to do.
All of the above are inanimate objects incapable of acting on their own to harm people.
Dogs aren't.
They are independent creatures capable of acting on their own beyond the control of a human so your analogy is worthless.
