Putnam County Sheriff’s deputies found the woman on the ground when they arrived at the scene in Interlachen Lake Estates on Sunday afternoon, sheriff’s officials said in a Facebook post. They also found the dogs inside a fence at a nearby home.
A nearby resident told deputies they heard the woman screaming for help and saw five dogs attacking her. Several neighbors tried pulling the dogs off the woman and one shot a gun into the air to scare the dogs away, the report said.
The Putnam County Animal Control Unit has taken custody of the dogs.
Authorities said that an investigation into the attack is ongoing and the owners of the dogs have been cooperative thus far.

one shot a gun into the air to scare the dogs away,
The problem with a lot of gun owners is that they don't know what a gun is for.

The fact that these dogs were still alive when the cops arrived is unbelievable.

I hear you but it sounds like a chaotic situation with a lot of movement and a couple people scrumming with the dogs. Hitting one of the humans while shooting at the dogs would have been something to worry about.

Instead of arming IRS agents they should have armed mail carriers instead.

Very sad. I had a friend in HS who lived in Interlachen. Very pretty place but pretty rural as I recall. It’s probably all built up by now, like most of Florida these days.

Yes, I noticed, too. At least the person hung the US flag correctly in the vertical position.

the owners of the dogs have been cooperative thus far The owners of the dogs could have been more cooperative by not having organic death machines on the premises.
