Newport News, VIRGINIA — Today, at 12:41 p.m., communications received a 9-1-1 call in reference to an argument between two females at a residence in the 700 block of 31st Street.<\/p>\n
When an officer arrived, both females were outside the residence.<\/p>\n
One of the females advised the officer that there was a dog inside the residence and then proceeded to open the front door.<\/p>\n
As the dog lunged toward the officer, the officer discharged his duty weapon and the dog was struck. The pit bull is currently alive and in the custody of animal control.<\/p>\n
The investigation continues and I have no further information as to the condition of the dog.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
