Dogattack

ST. LOUIS — A pedestrian is suing Gary L. Perry and Northside Regeneration LLC, dog and property owners, citing alleged failure to warn and negligence.

Mary Ann Kramer filed a complaint on Dec. 28 in the St. Louis Circuit Court against the defendants alleging that they violated the St. Louis City Ordinance 10.04.220.

According to the complaint, the plaintiff alleges that on May 27, 2017  she was walking on a public walkway near 2518 St. Louis Ave. when two pitbull-type dogs attacked her. She allegedly suffered injuries to her legs, body and arms. 

The plaintiff holds the defendants responsible because they allegedly failed to fence or barricade the property, negligently permitted the dogs to run at large without restraint, and allowed them to attack the plaintiff.

The plaintiff requests a trial by jury; and seeks judgment against the defendants in an amount in excess of $25,000, punitive damages, interest, costs, and all other relief that is just and proper. She is represented by Todd R. Nissenholtz and Jonathan D. Valentino of Cofman Townsley LLP in St. Louis.
