A very unfortunate accident has happened in the town of Moore, Oklahoma. A young boy, Cody Yelton age 3 was playing alone in his backyard. No one knows exactly what led to the events that took place on this day. Young Cody had placed his little arm through the chain link fence that enclosed his backyard, and through a neighbors privacy fence, that had one picket missing. (the properties were adjacent to one another) The neighbor owned four Pit bull Terriers, which were all running loose inside the privacy fence. One or all of the Pit Bull Terriers attacked Cody's arm, and it was severed. Cody is now home from the hospital, unfortunately his arm was not salvageable, and had to be amputated at the shoulder. The four dogs responsible for the attack were all euthanized. Cody's life is forever changed...
We the 89er American Pit Bull Terrier Club are deeply saddened by this tragic event. Cody has inspired us to organize a benefit in his honor. Cody's father is self employed, and has taken full monetary responsibility for all medical bills they will incur.
