Banner O'Berry, an 11-year-old football player from Atkinson, Georgia, sustained 17 open wounds after being attacked by three dogs on Sunday. While riding his four-wheeler with a teammate, the vehicle broke down and they noticed the dogs approaching. One dog grabbed Banner's ankle and pulled him off the vehicle; two others joined in attacking him as he tried to defend himself using pliers. His friend stayed to help fend off the dogs. After being rushed to Coffee Regional Medical Center, Banner underwent a surgery that lasted three and a half hours. His mother, Jessica O’Berry, reported on Facebook that her son was in extreme pain during his ambulance ride and called his football coach to inform him he wouldn’t be able to finish the season due to his injuries.
