After years of protecting citizens, a retired police constable is now recovering from a battle that nearly cost him his life—an attack by a pitbull outside his Claxton Bay home.
O’Neil Sookoo fought back tears yesterday as he recalled the terrifying moment the dog mauled him on Saturday night. Despite his injuries, he managed to save both himself and his wife, Sherry.
Speaking at his Cedar Hill Road home, Sookoo said he returned around 9.45 pm with his family and sent them inside ahead of him. As he walked up the driveway, a neighbour’s dogs began barking and running toward him.
