Cape Town - A 35-year-old woman has been left in a serious condition after being attacked by two dogs in Pietermaritzburg.

ER24’s Russel Meiring said paramedics were driving past, when they were flagged down by a member of the public.

“The woman was assessed and found to have sustained numerous bite wounds to her legs, arms, neck and head, leaving her in a serious condition,” Meiring said.

While paramedics were treating the woman, a man was attacked allegedly by the same dogs.

The dogs had attacked someone else and the man tried to intervene.

Meiring said the SPCA was on scene to capture the animals. The breed of the dogs was not known.
