Boston Mayor Thomas Menino said he wants to resurrect a city law requiring pit bulls to be muzzled in public, despite a new state ban on such laws that takes effect next month.
The Boston Herald reported that Menino's comments this weekend were in response to pit bull attacks in East Boston on Friday.
City officials said two pit bulls escaped from a Sumner Street home, attacked a boy and killed a cat before police shot one of the dogs and captured the other. The dog that was shot survived, and both pit bulls are being held until a city hearing on their fate.
A new state law that takes effect Nov. 1 bans breed-specific ordinances.
Menino said he's going to push for legislation that deals with pit bulls.
