PORT ST. JOHN, Fla. (AP) — Four pit bulls attacked a power company worker Tuesday, tearing off the 56-year-old woman's ear and part of her scalp.
The woman, a 20-year employee with Florida Power & Light Co., was taken to a hospital for surgery. Company spokesman Sandy Sanderson said the woman's injuries were critical but not life-threatening. Her identity was not released.

The woman was approaching a fenced-in back yard to read a meter when the dogs jumped the fence and attacked, but the worker was able to escape and run to her vehicle. A neighbor called authorities.
