A Michigan City area toddler wound up at the hospital after bitten by the family’s dog

this week.

 

According to LaPorte County Police, the pit bull mix was let outside Tuesday to use the bathroom.

When it was allowed back in, the dog grabbed a piece of pizza the two-year-old was eating. 

 

Police say the toddler tried to get the slice of pizza back and was bitten on the upper lip and

right eyebrow. The toddler was taken away by ambulance. No further information on the injuries was provided.

 

According to police, the family plans to get rid of the dog due to a previous act of aggression.
