A woman in Delhi's Swaroop Nagar area, situated in the northern part of the national capital, was bitten five times by a pitbull on Friday after she approached the owner, asking the person to clean the dirt from outside her residence.

In a video shared on X (formerly Twitter), the woman, who was identified as Riya Devi, was seen standing in front of the dog owner's house and the man came out with his dog, let the pet go, pushed her before the animal bit her multiple times on her hands and legs. The woman was rescued by neighbours and the incident was captured on closed circuit cameras.

"Their (owner's) behaviour was not at all right. Yesterday, I checked the camera and around 8 in the morning, their dog had defecated in front of our house. I went to their house and asked them to get it cleaned. They refused it. The dog bit me at 4-5 places. Police have registered the FIR. They have a pitbull dog," the woman told ANI.
