The victim was taken to Miami Valley Hospital. His injuries were serious but not life-threatening, Dayton police said.

A 911 caller told emergency dispatchers a man outside was being attacked bytwo pit bulls in the 200 block of Huron Avenue.

“They are gonna kill him!” the woman, who did not give her name, said in a call made shortly before 10 p.m. She did not stay on the line, but minutes later she called back, hysterically saying she could hear bones crushing and repeated that the dogs were killing the man.

Multiple police officers responded to the scene, and it later was reported the “dogs have been euthanized by DPD,” according to a call log from the Montgomery County Regional Dispatch Center.

Police said the man’s dog, Loki, ran away during the attack and had not yet been found.
