NEWBERRY SPRINGS, CA – A 17-year-old girl’s morning jog turned into a nightmare when multiple unleashed dogs viciously attacked her in Newberry Springs, California, leaving her with over 500 stitches and permanent trauma. As Tracy begins her long road to recovery, complex legal questions emerge regarding liability, negligence, and accountability in what appears to be a preventable tragedy that has forever altered a young life on the verge of her senior year.
At approximately 7:00 a.m., Tracy was jogging along a dirt road toward a local workout facility when multiple dogs attacked her without warning. The pack, later determined to number in the dozens, descended upon the teenager with devastating force. A neighbor who heard Tracy’s desperate cries for help immediately called 911, but the damage was already catastrophic.
When emergency responders arrived, they found Tracy covered in dirt and blood, barely recognizable to her own mother, Maria Azpeitia, who rushed to the scene. “I didn’t know who she was. She was so dirty, covered in dirt, so I couldn’t recognize my daughter,” Azpeitia told ABC 7 Los Angeles.
