According to reports, the white-coloured dog was seen roaming through various parts of Kamptee around 11 am on Monday. Without warning, it began attacking passersby and residents. Several victims sustained bite injuries on their hands, legs and other parts of the body, with some suffering severe wounds.

As news of the attacks spread, fear and panic engulfed the city. The injured were rushed to the hospital for immediate medical attention while residents remained on high alert.

Upon receiving information about the incident, municipal office-bearer Dilip Badebuche and councillor Manisha Nagpure visited the hospital and inquired about the condition of the victims.

Meanwhile, treatment of the injured is continuing, and health officials have urged citizens to remain vigilant. The Municipal Council has assured residents that special attention will be given to monitoring stray and suspected rabid dogs in the city to prevent similar incidents in the future.
