Pit Bull Stabbed to Death in San Francisco Street Fight

A man walking his dog in San Francisco’s Mission district early Friday morning was threatened by two men with a knife who police said ended up stabbing his pet to death.

The attack has outraged dog owners in San Francisco. Police are urging dog owners to be on guard.

"I always feel safe walking around with my dog," said San Francisco resident Lily Eggers. "It's very upsetting that I may not be as safe as I feel."

According to the San Francisco police, one of the suspects grabbed the dog, a pit bull, sparking a street fight between the three men at the intersection of 22nd and Bartlett streets about 3 a.m.

After the two suspects, both in their 20s, ran away, the owner realized his dog had been stabbed. The dog later died of its injuries at a nearby animal hospital.
