This is the gruesome moment a woman was mauled by her own pet pit bull at her residence in Colombia.
The 25-year-old pet owner was tying her sneakers in her bedroom when she was suddenly attacked last Thursday, Colombian media outlets reported.
The woman, who has not been identified, was able to crawl out of her apartment seeking help from her neighbors. She made it to the elevator, where its surveillance camera captured the attack.
'Her reaction was to drag herself up to the door and out to the hallway, with the hope that someone would come to help her,' a Cúcuta law enforcement source said, according to La Opinion.
The four-year-old dog stood over her in the elevator as she was on her back and continued to bite her left arm.
The woman attempted to push the pit bull away by jamming her right hand into its face and then managed to press the elevator button to get down to the lobby.
