11 year old saved 5 year old sister from Pit Bull dog attack

11 year old boy Maleik Carr was on his way to the bus with his 5 year old  sister Jalia Carr when one of the next door neighbors Pit Bull dog came through the fence barking, growling, and snapping at Jalia. At that point Maleik realized that the dog was going to bite Jalia if he did not do something so he kicked the dog and drew his attention off of Jalia and on to himself. 

 

At that point the dog turned on him and bit him and then another one of their Pit Bulls joined in. Maleik found one of Jalia's plastic chairs and used it to help fight the dogs off and told Jalia to RUN. He ended up with 18 bites on one leg 5 on the other 1 bite on one hand and 3 on the other. He had emergency surgery this morning and is in a lot of pain at this moment but he did survive the incident.
