October 23, 2007, 9:15 PM
A woman from the 1200 block of north Ridgeland told police her son was treated at Loyola hospital for wounds to his shin and ankle after a pitbull bit the child. The boy was playing in the alley with a friend, when he decided to go into the friend’s house in the 1200 block of Elmwood. As the boy entered the friend’s back yard, a brown and white male pitbull bit him. Police came to the 1200 block of Elmwood and spoke to the owner of the biting dog: Raul Castro, 36, who gave an address in the 3100 block of north Natchez, Chicago*. Castro confirmed the mom’s story. Police informed him that because it bit someone, the pitbull had to be taken away for a 10-day observation period.
*Castro is mentioned in a pitbull incident less than two weeks before but gave a different address at that time:
