A child was taken to the hospital following a dog attack in South Florida, marking the third such incident in the last month.

The child, a 2-year-old boy, was attacked in his family’s Miami Gardens backyard Tuesday night. The dog at the center of the attack is the family’s pit bull, according to reporting from The Miami Herald.

The boy was airlifted to Joe DiMaggio Children’s Hospital in Hollywood, Florida, and was later transferred to Jackson Memorial Hospital because of the “seriousness of his injuries,” the newspaper reported.
