According to Reuters , the incident happened on August 19 in Detroit. Emma Hernandez, 9, was attacked by three angry dogs while riding a bicycle near her home. Although the intervening neighbors, Hernandez did not escape.

Local media described extremely fierce dogs. A neighbor must use bricks to chase. Another must use a pistol to shoot down one of the three evil dogs.

The owner of the dog, Pierre Cleveland, 33, was arrested on August 22 and faced many charges including manslaughter, keeping dangerous animals and killing people at level 2, according to the Detroit Free Press .

Cleveland’s family court attended the August 22 court. Relatives of the accused cried in court. He also applied to confirm his innocence.

The accused was detained with a bail of up to $ 2 million . Cleveland’s attorney, Mr. Emmett Greenwood, suggested the court reduce the bail, saying the $ 2 million figure was "excessive" when his client did not have a criminal record, and there was no risk of running away. The judge eventually rejected Greenwood’s proposal.

Cleveland is the neighbor of the Hernandez family. The defendant is just across the street.

Local media have said that residents in the area have repeatedly complained to the city government about evil dogs. They said the defendant broke the fence and left the dog running out of the way to be dangerous.

Answering AP , Hernandez’s father was Armando saying Cleveland had repeatedly received a warning that the fence was too loose but the accused still ignored it.
