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

Here are some more "cute" doggie pictures

I used to think it was only liberals who lived in an alternative universe where physical reality and facts could be changed by wishing, but apparently pit bull lovers also inhabit that same universe

Then post the articles when it happens.

You really don't get it do you. Does the url at the top of your browser say doghaters.com? No. Then that should be your first clue these dog hater threads are nothing more than FR pollution. It's sewage of the mind and they stink just like regular sewage.

It’s bred to fight, attack, and kill and it does. It does what its nature inclines it to do.

More dog-hating nonsense. Were you hatched or made in a cauldron?

Despite their tenacity and determination in battle, commoners actually bred pit bull terriers with some of the same qualities and traits that we still love about them to this day. Through selective breeding and culling, bite inhibition towards humans was greatly encouraged. Gamblers had to be sure that they could enter a pit and handle their dogs in close proximity without the danger of being bit themselves. If a dog bit a human, it was usually culled.

And those are pretty mild.

I’ve seen ones with the kids face literally ripped off. All you could see was bones and blood.

The child died.

***Not nearly as sorry as many here are that these threads get posted at all.**
You remind me of the sick individuals in “the Omega Man” they wanted Charlton Heston dead, Because he is healthy and a throw back to technology and forward thinking. They want to stay primitive ..
The posts are news... sticking you head where the sun don't shine doesn't make the problem go away boomer..

Dog lovers. Get it right. Sad pictures for sure. Now show me the owner of the dogs who did this and provide the background of how the dogs were treated and housed.

Once again you dog-haters are missing the BIG POINT. It's not about any particular dog attack. It's about the owners and how they treat and care for their dogs.

I've got a scar from a Doberman that goes from my top lip to my chin. Did I go on some dog-hating Jihad like you people? Of course not. It was the fault of the owner. Start holding these abusers and neglecters responsible then we can have an intelligent conversation. Till then this is all just twisted hate speech from you dog-hating leftists.

In 2017 there were 57 pit bull attacks that resulted in the victim dying in the USA. During the same period there were two people killed by bears. Which animal poses the greater risk?

I posted some of the less horrific pictures in deference to people's sensitivities. People like "Boomer" and her ilk who are unable to accept reality and turn to personal attacks in lieu of facts are really not worth engaging with.

You’re a nasty youngster, aren’t you Boomster? Simply because someone doesn’t agree with you and calls you on it, you resort to talking about toilets and such. Lighten up, sport.

Not nearly as caustic as these dog-hating threads are. I’m only holding the mirror up. What you see is what you made.

It’s funny that you don’t see the folly in your own posts.

You spout hate about people who spout hate, calling them hateful - as well as other names.

Going on and on showing what kind of person defends these animals. The window in which you look out to see us is a mirror.

I think it’s funny. I’m sure you’ll pound out some sort of insult or taunt at me in response. I’ll set the egg timer.

I respect your passion, just providing a jolt of reality.
Oh, and please do not blame your words on others; that, I should hope, is beneath you ... something you should consider during a calm period of introspection, my FRiend.
Cheers!

If you don’t want to see how ugly and disgusting your hate looks to others; then don’t force us to hold the mirror up to show you. It’s really that simple.

Just because you can do something doesn’t mean you should do it. Do you make a habit of poking bears, lions, and tigers with a stick like this all the time or just here on FR?

Perhaps you can get another hobby like knitting or trimming toenails for people.

Dude; when these dog-hating threads stop I’ll stop. I definitely have better things to do but this is not something that can be left to fester without being challenged. It must be answered and put down like a bad antifa riot.

Actually, the thugs that harbor these pit bulls need a spanking too.

In my neighborhood there are two types I see with puit bulls: diminutive Bros who use the vicious dog as a substitute for a Johnson they are proud of but don’t have, and man hating lesbians who are no doubt acting out their anger at their miserable place in life. Which is the Boomer?
