PARMA HEIGHTS, Ohio - A man is in the hospital after being attacked by a dog near Big Creek Parkway, Cleveland Metropark Rangers said.
Just before 9 a.m. Tuesday, a Rottweiler got loose near the reservation in Parma Heights, and attacked a man and his two dogs, rangers said.
One dog was taken to an area veterinarian, where it had to be euthanized for its injuries. The man was taken to Parma Hospital for observation.
The Rottweiler is now in quarantine at a private kennel, where it will remain for 10 days.
A citation was issued and will be filed in Parma City Court on Wednesday. The case is still under investigation.
