ODESSA -- More pit bulls have been seized after a vicious attack that left a woman hospitalized in Odessa.
Odessa Animal Control officers took 2 additional pit bulls into custody on Wednesday.
Those dogs -- as well as 4 other dogs who were already seized -- will be quarantined for 10 days.
Odessa Animal Control officials say that 6 pit bulls mauled Anna Marie Salcido while she was walking in the 3700 block of West 10th Street around 2 PM on March 11th.
Salcido, 54, suffered numerous injuries throughout her body during the attack.
Salcido underwent surgery at Medical Center Hospital after the attack.
The owner of the dogs -- Joshua Moore -- got several citations for having dogs at large without licenses or rabies vaccines.
Moore, 17, has since signed the rights of the original 4 pit bulls that were quarantined over to Odessa Animal Control.
A second man -- 41-year-old Maurice Henderson -- was also cited for interfering with a humane officer.
