A Delhi resident sustained multiple deep puncture wounds to his thigh and a twisted muscle injury after intervening to protect his pet dog from a neighbor's Rottweiler. The incident occurred during a walk in their housing society. The owner lifted his small dog to safety, but the Rottweiler attacked him. The Rottweiler eventually retreated after being struck with a bottle. The injured owner, who has a phobia of needles and blood, fainted due to the wounds and fall.
