Pitt bull mutt bites off housekeeper's toe in Brooklyn apartment.

A pit bull mutt being dog-sat in a Brooklyn luxury apartment gnawed off a housekeeper’s toe moments after she arrived to start her shift, police said. The 62-year-old woman had just walked into the 20 Bayard St. apartment in Williamsburg around 1:30 p.m. Wednesday to start cleaning when the nervous dog attacked her. The pooch, which belongs to a friend of the homeowner, chomped down on the woman's left pinky toe, ripping it clean off her foot, cops said. EMS personnel were called to the apartment and immediately put the severed toe on ice. The woman was taken to Bellevue Hospital, but it was not certain if doctors were able to reattach the toe, cops said.The NYPD's Emergency Service Unit was also called to the apartment and coaxed the dog into a portable cage before bringing it to an Animal Care and Control Center facility. An ACC spokeswoman said the female canine is being held on a 10-day rabies screening pending a Department of Health investigation. More
