Residents of Kingsland are living in fear after three pit bulls attacked Deborah Darlington and her family on Saturday.
The grim declaration came from Reverend Grantley Ashby of the Pentecostal Church of Christ, who rushed out of his home to assist Darlington’s two-year-old son, Kamali, and his father, Kemar Barrow.
Ashby said that Saturday’s attack in Jasper Avenue was not the first in the district. He told the DAILY NATION that two weeks ago the dogs attacked another resident and prior to that “a lady was screaming murder, the dogs were attacking her too”.
He said: “What I saw in those dogs, they are definitely out for killing somebody and they would make you not want to walk around the area now. Something has to happen with those dogs.”
