Animal control officers removed two pit bulls from a home in Elliot last night after receiving reports of dog fighting.
The owner of the dogs likely will face criminal charges, said Gerald Akrie, a supervisor with Pittsburgh's animal control department.
The dogs both had scars "all over" their bodies from fighting, Mr. Akrie said. They were taken from a home on Navajo Way around 5 p.m. yesterday.
Police are investigating, Mr. Akrie said.
