On Wednesday afternoon, a 65-year-old walker was attacked and injured by two dogs in Steegen (district of Grieskirchen).

The animals ran towards the man from a wooded area. Their owner, a 66-year-old from the district of Grieskirchen, called them back, but they ignored the commands, according to the police.

The attacked 65-year-old eventually managed to get the dogs to leave him alone again through loud screams and defensive movements. He suffered bite wounds on his arm and thigh and required medical treatment. The dog owner will be reported.
