A child has suffered injuries as a result of Tulsa dog bites after being attacked by neighbors’ pit bull dogs Saturday, Tulsa World reported.

The Tulsa dog bite injury victim apparently scaled the fence into a neighbor’s yard where the pit bulls attacked him and bit his legs and head.

Another neighbor, 17, heard the incident and rescued the Tulsa dog bite injury victim by running into the yard and scaring the dogs away from the child.

Police responded to the call and shot and killed one of the pit bulls. The other pit bull was taken to a local animal shelter to be tested for rabies in the Tulsa dog bite case.

The owners of the pit bulls were out of town at the time that the Tulsa dog bite injuries occurred.
