In the Orihuela district of La Murada, a three-year-old child sustained multiple facial and back injuries as a result of a dog attack.
The incident occurred at the intersection of Calle Antonio Balaguer and Camino de los Almendros slightly after 2 p.m. on Saturday, May 3rd.
The child and his mother had gone to their neighbour’s house across the street to eat and spend the afternoon when the dog emerged from the garage and “hooked” the child, according to witnesses.
The family members’ prompt action in separating the large, mixed-breed dog prevented “a tragedy,” as per the same sources.
It appears that the neighbours have encountered comparable hazardous circumstances in the past; however, they have not culminated in an attack, as they have in this instance, despite the numerous warnings they have issued to the proprietor.
The site was attended to by the local police and Guardia Civil. The SAMU (Safety and Emergency Medical Service) was dispatched by the Emergency Information and Coordination Centre, which received the call at 2:38 p.m. A Basic Life Support unit was mobilised and conveyed the child to the Orihuela health centre upon the medical team’s arrival, as the child appeared to have sustained some scratches.
