After a pit bull attacked a student outside Hanes Magnet Middle School on Thursday, police cited a Winston-Salem man for owning a dangerous dog and a woman for letting animals run loose.

A school resource officer shot a Brindle pit bull twice outside the school near the track and field area Thursday afternoon, authorities said. It was one of two dogs loose in the area.

Luis Munos, 23, of the 2300 block of Marble Street was cited with owning a dog that attacked a person and caused an injury.

Lauren Anica, 22, who shares the same address, was cited with unlawfully permitting the animals to run loose.

The 11-year-old who was bitten had minor injuries and was treated at a doctor’s office, said Brent Campbell, a spokesman for Winston-Salem/Forsyth County Schools.

Forsyth County Animal Services took the dog that was shot to a veterinarian, and it was later euthanized, Lt. David Morris, the director of animal services said.
