Chaotic scenes after vicious dog mauling
Wild footage has captured the aftermath of a vicious dog attack in Sydney’s southwest, with a man hurling abuse at neighbours and telling them to “pull the f**k up” as he is wheeled away.
The chaotic scenes erupted after the man, in his 20s, was attacked by the dog at an address in Flinders Rd, in Georges Hall, about 7.45pm on Thursday.
He suffered “significant lacerations” to his leg and arm and was take to Liverpool Hospital.
A NSW Ambulance spokeswoman confirmed the injuries were not life threatening.
Footage captured by 9News crews shows the man hurling abuse as he is taken away by paramedics on a stretcher.
He can be heard screaming: “Pull the f**k up, understand? Pull the f**k up!” and “Watch when I get out”.
Neighbours quickly returned fire but they were kept separated by police.
It is understood the dog which attacked the man was an American Akita.
NSW Ambulance inspector Mathew Johnston said the scene was “heightened” due to a patient being in distress.
“As you could understand that was stressful for both the family and the bystanders,” he said.
9News reports the dog - which was microchipped but not registered - was sedated by council rangers on Friday and taken to a pound.
