When both dogs began to “aggressively advance toward the officers” police fired their weapons, say officials.
Both dogs died as a result.
The attack victim was transported to the hospital. His identity has not been released, and no information about the dogs, their owners, or what prompted the attack have been provided.
Police say they will review the incident in accordance with their policy.
