A farm dog in the UK jumped through the front window of a car where a baby was left unattended. The dog mauled the child, causing severe injuries to the child's leg. The dog was killed. The dog was a Border Collie and the child nearly had to have his leg amputated. According to family members, the dog leaped into the car because he was "jealous".

A Presa Canario show dog escaped from her flight crate, leaped out of the landed plane, and decided to take a swim in Flushing Bay. She did not eat anyone during her capture.
Probe of fatal Pit Bull attack inconclusive. The dog found near the scene and "accused" of killing the girl actually didn't - none of the dog's DNA matched. Another dead dog was tested but tests were inconclusive.

Just as a point of clarification on the 1st entry. Unlike the US where "Collie" means the Rough/Smooth Collie, over in the UK, where the bite took place, "Collie" means Border Collie. One of the articles also refers to the dog as a "working farm dog" which is a type registry including BCs and working type Bearded Collies.
Thanks, ChrisJ. I have edited the post.
