On Sunday, December 23, at approximately 11:15 pm, Wilmington Police responded to 18th and N. Market Street for a report of a pitbull attacking another dog.
Upon the officer's arrival they made contact with a community member who advised officers that while he was walking his three dogs a loose pitbull made contact with his dogs and began attacking them.
