Police said there were a total of four reports in the city’s west end early Saturday, all involving what were thought to be the same man and dog.
“We’re not talking about a French poodle here, we’re talking about a 100-pound pit bull or mastiff,” said Toronto Police Service media relations officer Const. David Hopkinson. Police said shortly before 3 a.m. a man allegedly carjacked a vehicle from a ride-hailing service and set a dog to attack the driver, who was taken to hospital with serious but non-life-threatening injuries.The next attack reportedly happened around 4:30 a.m. in a local park about two kilometres from the carjacking.
A woman and man biking through the park stopped briefly to take pictures, Hopkinson said. The suspect then allegedly set the dog on the woman and stole her bike. The woman’s biking partner came to her aid and the dog was set upon him as well, but police said he was able to escape.This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below.
