A U.S. Mail letter carrier is recovering after she was attacked by three pit bulls during her route in Hilliard.

Lacey Cassidy wears an arm sling with her arm wrapped in a heavy bandage.

” I have never pleaded with an animal in my life,” Lacey Cassidy said. “All I could do was please, don’t, please, I was just terrified.”

Last Friday while on her route on County Road 108, Lacey Cassidy made a stop at a home that required a signature.

She said she went to the front door to obtain the recipient’s signature when she said a pit bull charged through the pet door.

“He latched onto my arm here, and one after the other the other two came out,” she said.
