After a 14-year-old boy was attacked by three pit bulls in Marysville, the teen and his mother are explaining what happened and thanking his rescuer. On Wednesday morning, Dallas Davis was walking through Eastlake Park in Marysville."I walked through it to go to my grandma's," Dallas said.He had done it many times before without any problems. But that day, three pit bulls, two without leashes, pounced on him."One knocked me down. They were biting me," he said. "I got up, trying to run. They were right on me. I couldn't, so I turned around and started punching, boom. I punched him couple times in the face and they got me again."The 14-year-old suffered puncture wounds all over his body -- both of his legs, up and down his arms, the side of his face and even a wound that put a hole in his stomach."I felt them bite my hair, pull my hair and grab my face. They were just getting me everywhere," Dallas said. "I just thought they were going to keep on eating me and I was going to die."Luckily, Chad Bird was driving by and saw Dallas in desperate need of help. He parked his car and ran over. The dogs turned on Bird and Dallas was able to get away.| RELATED | Boy, man mauled by 3 pit bulls in Marysville parkDallas got into a passerby's car and called his own ambulance."I was over there screaming.
