The owner of a dog that mauled a neighborhood child has been charged.
Police said a chained Rottweiler attacked a 2-year-old girl Tuesday.
Investigators charged the owner of the dog with reckless conduct. Police said Wilbur Pittman should have done more to control his dog.
Pittman’s sister, Penny, disagreed with officials and told Georgia Newsday, ”This is the chain he’s always been on ever since I’ve been seeing the dog. He’s always been on this chain. You can see how heavy it is and he didn’t break it.
The 2-year-old victim is in the hospital.
Rescue crews flew her to Atlanta because her injuries were so severe.
