Seven dogs attacked an 11-year-old student during a practice at the Complejo Deportivo de San Sebastián in Puerto Rico on a Friday. [^2]

López said her son has an open wound on the back of his head, needed stitches on his ears (one almost detached), and has injuries to an eye, an armpit, buttocks, and both legs. [^3]

The Department of Education said in written statements that on the day of the interview, Health Department staff will assist the municipality in addressing the stray dog problem, after previously indicating they lacked resources to dispose of the animals. [^4]

Yenilín López, the boy's mother, told Primera Hora that the athletics teacher had designed a training routine around the school because the program lacks a track, and that the teacher saw the student on the ground surrounded by dogs. [^5]

López said that on the morning after the attack, three dogs were still inside the school facilities and the school was calling for help without receiving a response. [^6]

Yenilin López, the mother of the 11-year-old, said the dogs caused wounds on his eye, ears, head, shoulders, armpits, legs, and buttocks, and that he is traumatized, nervous, and sad. [^7]
