Charlotte animal control officers seized six pit bulls on Oct 4 that they said were used for fighting. The officers were in the Reid Park neighborhood checking for license tags and rabies vaccinations when they noticed several dogs at 3607 Reid Avenue.

None of the dogs had been licensed or inoculated and all had wounds consistent with dog fighting.

Animal Control also seized a gamecock.

The case is still under investigation and charges against the owner are pending.
