Guangxi Boy Bitten by Stray Dog, Bystanders Ignoring the Victim Sparks Controversy

Recently, in Qinzhou, Guangxi, a boy was bitten by a yellow dog on his way home from school. Despite many passersby witnessing the incident, no one extended a helping hand, sparking criticism from netizens online.

Video footage online shows the moment when a boy, on his way home from school, was suddenly chased and bitten from behind by an unleashed yellow dog. The boy screamed in fright as a man in white ahead of him turned to look, hesitated for a moment, then turned and continued walking.

The boy struggled helplessly as the yellow dog relentlessly pursued him, even knocking him to the ground at one point. A white private car passed by, and the driver threw something from the car to try to scare the dog away, but it missed. The yellow dog continued to attack the boy on the ground, and the car owner, upon seeing this, did not stop the car but drove away.

A high school student riding an electric scooter also briefly stopped but then left. Later, a black private car arrived, and the owner honked the horn incessantly to scare off the yellow dog, allowing the boy to hide beside the black car and finally escape the dog’s chase.

The boy’s face and arms were bitten in multiple places by the yellow dog, with his face covered in blood as seen in the video.

After the video went viral online, it immediately caused a stir across the internet. Many netizens criticized the lack of action, saying, “Too indifferent, he’s just a child, why didn’t anyone help him? Too cruel, will anyone ask? If this child today was any one of you, could you still stand by idly?” “What’s going on, why is no one intervening, just shoo the vicious yellow dog away from the child.”

“The indifference lies in people’s hearts.” “Nowadays, people are afraid of getting involved, poor kid.” “What makes everyone so indifferent?” “This child, at risk of death, it’s no joke.”

“It hurts to watch, why wasn’t the dog on a leash when out in public?” “Every city has unleashed yellow dogs roaming, and nobody cares.” “Report to find the owner of this yellow dog, make them compensate with 2 million, hold them criminally responsible, why not train the dog properly? Why let it out to bite people?” “Strict regulations are needed, it’s despicable.”

It’s essential to raise the standards for pet ownership, increase penalties, no abandonment allowed, no reckless breeding, walk yellow dogs on a leash, failure to leash a yellow dog and it attacks someone, owners should face criminal charges. “Strict management is necessary, this is abominable.”
