This happened up the road I thought it was funny enuf to share. Pitbulls or large dogs in general seem to get a bad rap sometimes, not this time.

This is how the article read.

Rogersville, Tn. -- A family fight turned uglier when their family pitbull joined the brawl.

Christina Lyman told authorities she was trying to break up a fight between her brother and sister, Nick Lyman and Yvonne Lyman.

That's when the family pitbull entered the fray and "turned on all three parties." according to Cpl Chad Gillenwater of the Hawkins County Sheriff's deptartment.

Arriving at the home Gillenwater said he found dents in the siding a broken storm window and torn screen from the fight, and Yvonne outside in a "Violent drunken state."

The officer found Nick Lyman and Christina Lyman inside. Both appeared to have been drinking as well.

All three Lymans were suffering from dog bites and had to be taken to the emergency room for treatment.

Nick and Yvonne were charged with domestic violence assault. Yvonne was also charged with disorderly conduct.

They face a a January 12 arraignment in Hawkins County Sessions Court.

No action was taken against the dog.---------
