Hero Dublin’s girl and dog save mom’s life when she was ‘repeatedly shot in the head and with tase’ in shocking city shooting

This is the heroic young Dubliner and her dog who saved a woman’s life while being repeatedly shot in the head with a pellet pistol and pistol-shot in a shocking assault in the city center.

It was understood that the victim of the attack, a mother of four children in her early 20s, was attacked by an armed man and woman on Capel Street before 12 p.m. Friday morning.

Dublin Live understands the woman had her hair pulled and allegedly repeatedly kicked in the face as she lay on the ground after the gruesome shooting.

Fortunately, the 21-year-old and her Pitbull Myah were in the area and she and her defensive dog rushed to protect the mother from the attackers.

The dog’s owner told Dublin Live that he heard gunshots while walking with Myah and immediately thought he was witnessing “a murder in real life.”

She said: “To be honest I’ll never forget. I was walking along the docks and when I got to the top of Capel Street, I heard a bang and saw a person pointing a gun.

“I didn’t know it was a pellet gun at the time, as the bangs sounded like a real gun.

“I thought I was witnessing a murder in real life, just me and my dog ​​ran to help this girl, God knows what would have happened.”

She added: “The person was shooting in the back of his head and my dog ​​got nervous and ran and immediately started protecting the woman.

“I kept yelling ‘warn that, leave her alone’, there was an expression of fear on her face.

“Then she was attacked with tase repeatedly. It was still creaking, it was such a horrible sound.

The victim told Alisha that if it weren’t for her and her dog, things could have gotten a lot worse.

She continued: “Another man on a bicycle came up and helped. At this stage, a whole crowd had gathered but no one else was willing to get involved.

“However, my dog ​​stood next to her, refused to leave her side until the commotion stopped.

“The poor woman went into what looked like an attack and began to tremble furiously after the attack.

“I stayed with her for hours after the attack, I was attacked by a gang before and it is not a pleasant feeling to have no one, so I made sure she had company.”

A Garda spokesperson told Dublin Live that a woman in her 30s was arrested in connection with the incident.

He said: “Gardaí is investigating an assault incident that occurred in the Capel Street area of ​​Dublin 1 on 02/05/2021 at approximately 11:45 am.
