It apparently began with an argument over a burrito. It ended with at least three people being bit by a pit bull outside a Mount Pleasant convenience store.
According to reports one of the men involved says he tried to pay for a burrito for another man and that the other man got angry. The argument turned into a fight outside the store and the girlfriend of one of the men involved got out of her car, and so did a pit bull that weighed at least 75 pounds.
Police say three people were bit and treated for superficial wounds at Howard University Hospital. A bystander was bit, too, after he went to the store to get a drink. Police say it does not appear the dog was deliberately set loose but the investigation is continuing. Animal control has taken the dog.
