Often times, the U.S. postal delivery person is not a friend to the dog. Many dogs simply go crazy when the delivery person drops the mail in the box.
Detroit Police are investigating a viscious attacy by a pit bull on a postal worker on Friday on Ardmore Street, west of Schaefer Highway in the Blackstone Park area on the west side, Fox 2 reports, adding:
The attack was captured on video, showing the mail carrier on the ground in the 20000 block of Ardmore. The dog can be seen attacking the 52-year-old man's foot and ankle while a woman hits the animal with a broomstick. Another man threw a trash container at it, to no avail.
Another person hits the dog with a wheel lock. The dog eventually let go and the carrier was treated and is expected to be OK. Animal control took the dog.
