An 8-year-old girl that was attacked by a pit bull in Manteca on Sunday evening may soon be released from Oakland Children’s Hospital.Shortly before 7 p.m. on Sunday night dispatchers received a call that a young girl had been bitten by a large dog on the 200 block of Almond Avenue, and had sustained injuries. Because the immunization record of the animal, which was also not registered with Animal Control Services, could not be located, the girl was taken to Oakland Children’s Hospital while the animal was quarantined for observation. The name of the girl has not been released, and the owners of the animal have not been publicly identified.
