Seven dogs fell out of a U-Haul in northwest Charlotte in August and mauled a woman in her front yard: more than a hundred bite wounds, emergency surgery, ten days in the hospital. Two people face misdemeanor charges, and her family says not one charge addresses the injuries. We read North Carolina's dangerous dog law to see what it actually allows, and the answer is a misdemeanor at most. Plus: Panthers–Lions on Sunday Night Football and how to get there, a woman killed by a CATS bus north of uptown, the first transit-tax bus upgrades starting Monday, and five days left to register to vote. And a free Friday night at Charlotte Motor Speedway.
