The Stinson family in Charlotte Harbor, has filed a lawsuit on behalf of their 14-year-old daughter who was mauled by a pit bull on March 17 while she was walking home from school. According to the Sun Herald a pit bull named Diesel attacked the girl causing her to receive stitches for the defensive wounds.

The owner of the dog, Michael Davis and property owner John J. Steger are both named in the lawsuit for allowing the dog to roam free. The pit bull was put to sleep by Animal Control officers on March 30 after being deemed a menace. Davis also faces criminal misdemeanor charges for reckless disregard in this same incident.
