But pit bulls are just cute and cuddly animals, right? From the article Rob posted:

The teacher's ordeal comes just one year after the Observer reported the death of 66-year-old Whittington Cole, who was mauled by a group of pit bulls and Rottweilers.

Whittington's death came just months after a mother and her two young children were attacked by dogs in an upper St Andrew community.

In February 2016 the Observer reported the death of 56-year-old Jerome Pow after he was attacked by pit bulls in the vicinity of Hagley Park Road, St Andrew.

On January 2, 2014, a three-year-old boy lost an eye after being mauled by a pit bull in St Ann; and on January 4, 2014, a 59-year-old mechanic was mauled by three pit bulls in St Mary.
