This Tuesday, a 30-year-old man leaving his store on rue Gambetta in Nice was attacked by a pit bull. Bites that earned him an operation, 28 calf stitches, internal stitches and a laser shot to repair the severed nerve in his arm, the trader told our colleagues at nice morning.
The dog would belong to a young person in the neighborhood, who owns two canids of the breed. The victim indicates that this is not the first time that he has caused problems for shopkeepers, which seems to confirm Eric Fouzari, the president of the Parc Impérial-Gambetta neighborhood committee: “I have already been told about it, let him walk like that with his two dogs, in the street, I’m not saying it had to happen… but it did. I’m angry, it’s dramatic, ”he laments.
The trader says: “I didn’t want to argue with him, so he said to his dog ‘eat it’. And the pit bull jumped on me. The man had to climb onto the hood of a car to try to escape the dog. After finding refuge in a nearby hotel, the 30-year-old was taken to hospital by firefighters around 5:30 p.m.
