(05/18/06) SAYREVILLE ? A Sayreville woman is healing from wounds sustained in a pit bull attack that took place Wednesday afternoon.

Patricia Santucci says the attack occurred while she was walking her dog near her home. According to Santucci, two pit bulls squeezed through a fence and attacked her while she attempted to protect her own dog. Santucci says she?s stunned by the amount of people who slowly drove past the scene, but didn?t intervene to help stop the attack.

The owners of the dogs eventually pulled the animals off Santucci. The victim blames the owners for not securing the animals properly. Animal control is caring for the dogs until their fate is decided. Santucci believes they should be put down.
