2 Pit Bulls Attack Man Inside Home

A neighbor's two pit bulls tore a chunk out of a man's leg, a caller told police.

A neighbor's two pit bulls attacked a man inside his apartment in North Mission Viejo Thursday morning near the corner of Santa Margarita and Marguerite.

Police were called at 9 a.m. when a man was reportedly bitten in the back of the leg. His wife told police a "chunk of meat was taken out of her husband's leg."

She said the dogs' owners were hiding the animals inside their apartment.

The police dispatcher said it sounded like the neighbors had been fighting.

The call came from the 21600 block of Marguerite Parkway.

Now wait a second—UV exposure causes skin cancer, and sunscreen prevents UV exposure, right?Read More And so what if the neighborhood hounds tend to give you a little extra attention while you're wearing it? It's a small price to pay I'd say.

I know where they should be issuing speeding tickets: Marguerite Pkwy. between Crown Valley andRead More Avery Parkway between 6:10 and 6:25 a.m. Tuesday through Friday. Teens are frantically rushing to get to CVHS upper lot before it gets full. Every morning I see kids running red lights, speeding and weaving in and out of traffic with no regard for anyone else.

The MV motorcycle cops are all over the place. I'd like to know the number of traffic citationsRead More issued in MV versus our other neighboring cities.

Why are all the Motorcycle cops in MV OVERWEIGHT???

I've got some good news for the Mission Viejo Patch Whiners (®). It seems we're still migratingRead More a lot of the old content onto the new site. Expect to see videos repopulated soon, and I believe comments as well.

That rings true, don't it: the 'flat spot' in an ongoing trend that will sometime soon go on. Eat,Read More drink and be, Mary, for tomorrow... a new interface will be introduced that strips hyperlinks, videos and comments from your bloggos and puts history out with the dogs. (whiiiiinnnnnnne)

There is a reason why sites like Patch 2.0 don't look good on Shripathi's Kindle-whatever screen,Read More but these sites do look great on the iPhone in Portrait for Landscape view. I'll be writing a post about that. If you're a business owner with a web site, you need to understand the reason in order to save money on your site.

The Bible also tells us that there were magicians who filled Egypt with blood, just like YahwehRead More helped Moses do. As to why magicians would fill the Nile (drinking supply), and their own country with blood, and stink it all up just to put Yahweh in his place is anyone's guess. Maybe this psychic can ask one of those magicians and let us know.
