The attacker held the victim to the ground and attempted to pull her pants down. As she started screaming, the two dogs, RuPaul and Louie, came to her aid and 鈥渧iciously鈥� attacked the man.
The woman was eventually able to break free from the man鈥檚 grasp while the shih tzu and terrier-cross were striking him.
鈥淭hey viciously attacked him 鈥� growling, biting and, I think with my screaming and the struggling, it made him stop,鈥� Kate was quoted as saying.
By the time she had gotten on her feet, the man was also able to escape the animals and fled the scene of the crime.
It is unknown if the man sustained injuries from the dogs鈥� attack. As per report, police have yet to find the suspect. Ryan Arcadio/JB
