Sheriff's Police interrupt South Side dog fight

ENGLEWOOD | Suspected ringleaders arrested, others cited in first-of-its-kind raid, Dart says

November 17, 2008

BY LISA DONOVAN Staff Reporter/ldonovan@suntimes.com

There was a crowd of 50 in all, including a pregnant woman and two teenagers, jammed into the tiny basement of an Englewood home allegedly cheering on the two pit bulls ripping each other apart in a makeshift ring, authorities said.

The stink of animal and a backed-up sewage drain didn't stop the alleged Saturday night show, didn't dampen the enthusiasm until deputies with the Cook County sheriff's office and Chicago Police descended on the residence in the 500 block of West 66th Street, they said. snip

"We were very surprised to walk in to that, in process of it going on, that's somewhat unusual," said Dart, adding that the fight had probably been going on about 15 minutes before it was stopped. "The whole thing was unsettling, there were little kids, a pregnant woman, guns all over the place," he said.

Dart says his officers videotaped gruesome footage of the scene, including a shot of officers having to pull one animal off the second, which was cowering and so weak it couldn't walk. A tackle box near the scene contained syringes and IVs, along with amphetamines and steroids as well as a staple gun that authorities say would be used to close the animal's wounds.

1. That is some fucked up shit.
I always thought it was weird how drug dealers knew how to do math so well. The "veterinary skills" of these people reminds me of that. That is the sickest part of this story.

2. If not for the innocent kids and dogs, the cops could have`
just blown up the house and I would have had a hard time finding a way to feel bad about it. Every adult in that basement has permanently exited the realm of decency.

3. "Both animals were reportedly euthanized."
What a shame. I hope these filthy fucks suffer. And why, in this modern day, is attending a dog fight just a misdemeanor?

The one dog was just laying there in his own blood dying. He couldn't even get up or move.

I get remorseful and depressed for months, (maybe years?), after accidentally hitting a bird or squirrel with my car and these people can do this stuff on purpose.

Sick world we live in.

6. I am non-violent as they come but I would still like a piece of that action
I will be satisfied with a long prison sentence though.

7. I am having violent thoughts
I can't stop myself from wanting to smack a few of those people upside the head. The DA should prosecute them to the fullest.
