OTTAWA–The Ottawa City Commission has a hot button issue on its hands….whether to lift the ban on Pit Bulls. Around 40 people turned out for a public hearing and most spoke in favor of lifting the ban, saying the breed is not inherently dangerous. Ottawa Police Chief Dennis Butler spoke against lifting the ban, saying Pit Bulls do not bite more than other breeds, but when they do attack, it’s usually without warning and the attack is much more devastating than other breeds.
