A tan pitbull attacked a woman, leaving her with life-long facial injuries. "The pitbull came running up and latched on to our boy, a German shepherd, and then grabbed a hold of her, tearing her face open and bit her legs and under her neck," said her husband, Lasalle Carr. Carr wasn't with his wife when she was attacked but relayed to the Herald what she had told him while she was in surgery. Beau the dog came away unscathed but Leuty was taken to Middlemore Hospital where she underwent two hours of plastic surgery on Tuesday morning. "She's still sore and swollen but she is recovering," Carr said today.
