2 men bitten by roaming pit bull, Ansonia police say

ANSONIA >> Two men were hospitalized early Monday after a roaming pit bull reportedly attacked them on Arch Street.

A nurse at Griffin Hospital called police at about 6:20 a.m. to report the two men, ages 41 and 43, came to the emergency room with bites that required surgery, police spokesman Lt. Andrew Cota said in a press release Monday afternoon.

The two men could only describe the dog as a dark-colored or brown pit bull.

One man told police he heard a disturbance in front of his residence around 3 a.m. and was attacked when he went to investigate. He said the dog bit his arm but he was able to fight the dog off and flee.
