Police spokesperson Captain Balan Mutha told IOL that four of the six dogs were handed over to the SPCA to be euthanased.
Johannesburg - A man has been left critically injured after he was viciously attacked by six pit bull terriers in Honeydew, paramedics said on Wednesday. ER24 spokesperson Russel Meiring said ER24 paramedics arrived on the scene at approximately 12pm to find several security members on the scene.
"Local authorities and the SPCA were called to the scene for further assistance. Once the dogs had been moved, authorities were able to retrieve the patient and bring him to the awaiting paramedics." Meiring said paramedics then immediately initiated CPR and advanced life support interventions in an effort to revive him.
Honeydew police confirmed the incident, adding that the man had been working as a gardener at the property for three years.
