Steelers' Harrison's son bitten by his pit bull (Harrison didn't go to WH)
Edited on Fri May-22-09 12:32 PM by RamboLiberal
According to a neighbor, one of three pit bulls in Mr. Harrison's home on Matterhorn Drive in Franklin Park got loose yesterday afternoon and attacked the child, James Harrison III. Another family member may also have been injured in the attack.

The neighbor did not want to be identified.

According to the neighbor, an ambulance went to the house in the late afternoon and took two people to the hospital. James Harrison III is in Children's Hospital. The hospital said the family has asked that no information about him be released.

Another neighbor who also did not want to be identified said a Franklin Park police officer knocked on her door around 6 p.m.

"The officer was warning us to keep our children inside because (Mr. Harrison's) dog had bit somebody. He said to keep everybody inside until it was resolved."

A source told reporter Ari Hait that the injuries to James Harrison III are severe, but not life-threatening.

Weird karma there - maybe it was for the better he didn't go to the WH. Hope his kid is ok.

1. His kid is only like 2 years old or something.
I really hope he's okay.

2. Now, I'm REALLY impressed by Prez Obama! He communicates with animals!
I'm sorry to hear this.

I wonder why he has three pit bulls around a little kid?

3. Cause these macho guys have to have the most macho dogs
When Joey Porter was on the team his pit bulls got loose and killed some minature horses.

5. In all honesty, I wouldn't be surprised if my one Border Collie killed minature horses
if he got loose, and he herds sheep.

6. But I think the horses could better defend themselves
against your border collie vs. a pit bull.
