DAYTONA BEACH — A Daytona Beach woman was recovering Monday after suffering severe injuries when two pit bulls attacked her as she walked home, officials said.

Jacquil Brummitt, 34, was at Halifax Health Medical Center in Daytona Beach after being mauled by the animals Sunday night, said Daytona Beach police spokesman Sgt. Kelsey Harris.

Callers to 9-1-1 described a horrific scene as they rushed and used a Taser to force the dogs to let go of the woman, they told dispatchers.

"I just heard here screaming ... the two dogs had her by the neck," the caller said to 9-1-1.

"She was hollering and the pit bulls, they were attacking her," the caller reported.

"She is bleeding from the mouth, eyes, neck."

According to a report, the 6:41 p.m. attack left Brummitt with multiple dog bites, including five puncture wounds to her left hip area, cuts to her upper and lower chest, right cheek and left eye, calf, forearm, right elbow and lower back.

The most severe injury Brummitt suffered was a 6-inch muscle displacement on her right bicep and two deep cuts to her elbow that were 3 and 4 inches deep, a report states.

The attack sent Brummitt to the hospital as a trauma alert, police said.

Brummitt had stepped off a bus near the Midtown Cultural Center and Education Center at 925 George W. Engram Blvd., and started walking to her home at 541 Arthur Ave., a report shows.

As she walked north on Arthur Avenue, Brummitt said she heard dog chains followed by barks. She turned to see two pit bulls lunging at her, police said.

The larger of the two dogs grabbed Brummitt in the right bicep area, dragging her to the ground and the second dog started biting her in the left side from her left arm down to her leg, investigators said.

The callers to 9-1-1 said the dogs run loose in the neighborhood and are vicious.

"They would have ate that woman if we hadn't came," the woman said. "They would have killed her."

The owner of the dogs, Anterio Miller, 29, of 507 Arthur St., was issued a notice to appear in court on two counts of no permits for the dogs and no proof of rabies vaccination as required.

Police found the dogs at Miller's house, where they saw he had left an open window for the dogs to come and go, a report said.

Miller was unable to provide proof that the dogs were vaccinated, police said.

Police seized the dogs and are being held in quarantine at the Halifax Humane Society, Kelsey said.
