Dearborn Heights Pit Bull Dog Attack
Our Michigan personal injury lawyers are reporting a story in the paper recently about a Dearborn Heights dog attack. The dog attack was a pit bull attack. According to police, a pit bull was attacking a girl when a man walking down the street saw the attack and intervened. Both the girl and the man suffer dog bite injuries including scratches. The girl who was attacked by the pit bull is a family friend of the pit bull’s owner, Laura Langston. Langston failed to shut the gate of her backyard and that is how the dog got out.
I am very sorry to hear about this accident and hope both injured victims have a fast recovery.
Victims of dog bite injuries and attacks in Michigan do have legal rights. Owners and keepers of dogs in Michigan are strictly liable for dog bites and attacks. This means that the dog bite victim does not have to prove that the owner was negligent, only that he or she was bitten or attacked by the dog. There are also strict Michigan dog bite laws that hold the dog owner liable if their unleashed dog bites or attacks an innocent person.
