Because the dog was only able to get its head into Jerry Weeks’ yard, it was unable to get a strong hold on the child. Jay Weeks broke free from the dog and ran back to his house and his father.

The child required stitches and strip bandages to close wounds to his eyes, mouth and other parts of his face. The dog has been quarantined to his owner’s home until animal control officers can investigate the attack.
