Pit bulls are a big problem in Chicago


“In February, while conducting a Facebook Live video from a vacant lot, Figueroa said she was attacked by a pit bull. Her screams were broadcast.”

She said she felt so helpless.  “…I actually had a bag, it was like a book bag where I carry my laptop and I used that like a shield.  If I didn’t have that I don’t know what would have happened or if I would even be here today.”
