Edna Dyson passes away after South Houston pit bull attack

Sadly Channel 2 News is reporting that 71-year old Edna Dyson has passed away from injuries sustained in a pit bull attack in South Houston last week. Edna went to tend to the yard of a rental property she owns on Swiss Lane in South Houston when the neighbor’s dogs slipped through a hole in the fence and attacked Edna. Edna was able to crawl to her car and climb inside where she waited for help. Investigators say poor Edna lost consciousness and was in her car for at least two hours before a neighbor found her and called 911. Both of the pit bulls were euthanized last week.

Four Galveston students injured when car rear ends school bus

Four Galveston students and an adult driver of a car received reportedly minor injuries when a car crashed into a school bus. The motorist swerved into the lane of the school bus on Tuesday November 15, striking the rear of the bus. Four students from the Early Childhood University and Weis Middle School along with the car’s driver were taken to John Sealy Hospital. The driver was not cited with any traffic violations, but is probably legally responsible for not controlling the speed of his vehicle and rear-ending the school bus.
