Loose Dog Attacks 12-Year Old Girl in South Windsor
Dog Appeared Friendly Then AttackedSouth Windsor, CN - A 12-year-old girl was attacked by a loose dog causing "significant injury and trauma" to her face, police said. The victim was walking near a railroad crossing with a friend when a black, medium-sized dog approached them.

Anyone with information should call: 860-644-2551
