Lakewood considers pit bull regulation

No one was injured in the attack, but family members had to get into or on a vehicle to avoid being bitten or worse. They told City Councilman Ron Cronk, who advised city officials.
Officials found that the dogs' owner once had other pit bulls that were were destroyed because they attacked some people.
City Manager Andrew Neiditz says in examining dangerous dog calls in Lakewood in the past several years, he found most involved pit bulls.
