Cape Town – The owner of a Tesla that was torn apart by an aggressive pit bull has called for the dog to be put down following the traumatic incident.
Videos of the incident were recorded by the Tesla owner and shared on her TikTok account. They have since gone viral, racking over 16 million views.
In one video, Olivia Symone shows the dog violently attacking the vehicle, ripping it apart as it growls.
The dog can be seen biting chunks from the metal parts of the car to the rubber parts with little effort.
It bites and pulls at the bumper, rips out the window lining, biting the tyres and angrily trying to stick its head inside the car through the slightly opened window.

The videos have yet again raised concerns about how dangerous this breed can b.
Others, however, wanted to know why Symone didn’t drive away off instead of recording the incident.
But the Maryland, USA woman said when she tried driving away the dog followed her.
She then shared another video where she could be heard shouting, “the dog is attacking me, it’s f**king following me”, while the dog’s barks and growls can be heard in the video as it chases the vehicle.
According to Olivia, the incident happened over the weekend. The dog initially bit her and chased her when she was trying to get her own dog into the car.
It is alleged that the pit bull owner has reportedly agreed to cover Olivia’s medical expenses but there was no clarity on who will bare the cost of the damage caused by the dog.
Social media users took to the comments section to express their views on the incident.
Some were surprised at how such an expensive car was falling apart like that, while others were concerned about the state of the dog.
