Pit bull attack...w/a twist.....
Man kills attacking pit bull
Posted on Thu, Jan. 10, 2008
A Tamarac man shot and killed a pit bull named Trouble after the dog escaped from its nearby home and attacked him on Thursday.
Here is what happened, according to the Broward Sheriff's Office:
Around 5:20 p.m. Trouble broke through a screen on the rear patio at a home on the 4500 block of Northwest 16th Way. Children playing nearby screamed, ``Trouble is out.''
Hearing the commotion, Paulo Jean, 35, stepped outside his home next door. Trouble attacked him, biting his buttocks and both arms. Jean pulled a .380 semiautomatic handgun from his pants pocket and fired three shots.
Trouble died at the scene.
Jean was taken to Broward General Medical Center with serious injuries.
Broward County Animal Care and Regulation removed the dead dog and took another dog that also got loose from the same residence. The dogs' owner was not at home when the attack occurred.
Jean had a valid concealed weapons permit.

He was darn lucky to drop a pit bull with three shots from a .380. 0 -
one of the main reasons I carry is b/c of dogs when I am serving court papers in the city. Everyone owns at least one pitbull and they all have names like kujo or killer or a$$ biter. 0 -
yeah but the gun you got is the one you got to use and the one you pick up every time is better than the one you leave on the dresser becasue it is to heavy 0 -
He was at home - Why does he need a valid CCW??? 0
