I am just having a tough time figuring out why we're letting these animals live.

Pit bulls are the most dangerous breed of dogs, and it's rare that a day goes by where you don't read about a pit bull mauling a child or another dog.

This is one of the most insane headlines I've ever seen:

Two pit bulls got into a school playground and just started attacking students and teachers at the school.

A schoolyard filled with 10, 11, and 12-year-old kids all fleeing in terror because someone's "precious baby" pet got loose.

On Tuesday, December 20, staff and students at Willard Intermediate South school were injured when two dogs identified as a pit bull mix breed made their way into the playground.

The incident occurred during afternoon recess shortly after 1 p.m. at the intermediate school which teaches students in grades 5 and 6.

Heather Harman-Michael, director of communications and public relations for Willard School District, told Newsweek: "There was an incident during recess in which neighborhood dogs got onto the playground and injured several students and teachers. Parents of students who were affected were contacted and ambulances were on site to assess and treat any injuries."

What a terrifying scenario.

Kids having to run from the playground into the school being chased by bloodthirsty dogs. It sounds like a horror movie.

Fortunately, none of the injuries from the attack and the ensuing chaos were life-threatening. However, it could have easily been much, much worse.

School employees, school police officers, first responders and Greene County Animal Services responded to the incident where the dogs were quickly captured.

"Animal control located the animals, and the owner gave up possession of them voluntarily," said Harman-Michael.

Cara Erwin from Springfield-Greene County Health told Newsweek: "The dogs were euthanized in order to be tested for rabies. The tests will be completed today, and we expect to have results within the next couple of days. During the investigation, it was determined that one of the dogs was not vaccinated and no proof could be provided that the other was up to date on its vaccinations."

Sure, the owner is obviously irresponsible, but it's becoming clear that there is no responsible way to own a pit bull.

I just feel like it's time to re-up this story from the summer.
