Grandma bit by dog

A Marion grandmother who broke up a fight between two dogs in her dining room Sunday ended up at St. Luke Hospital to get stitches.

Interim police chief Zach Hudlin said police were summoned to a house in the 300 block of S. Lincoln St. after the dog bite. “The owner was trying to break up a fight,” Hudlin said.

After she got the dogs apart, a 2-year-old Labrador retriever bit its owner. The dog owner was taken by ambulance to St. Luke. Hudlin said the dogs were registered with the city and current on vaccinations, so no citations were issued.
