Dogs savage partygoers

Henderson police say a 24-year-old man left a Glen Eden party after a fight early on Saturday, yelling that he was going to get his dogs, and then returned with two and let them loose on the partygoers.

Police say two people received puncture wounds while a third was taken to hospital.

The dogs' 24-year-old owner has been charged with wounding with intent to cause grievous bodily harm and is due to appear in the Waitakere District Court today.
