A man has been hospitalized after being attacked by a dog in Bronx on Saturday.

Authorities say the FDNY responded to a call at a residence on Randall Avenue in Castle Hill at around 11:30 a.m.

The man was taken to Jacobi Medical Center with minor injuries, police said.

The dog is now in the care of Animal Care and Control in Manhattan.

This recent attack comes after a 5-year-old boy was hospitalized after being attacked by two pit bulls at his home in Brooklyn.
