SERENA’S PIT BULL BITES SECURITY GUARD: Tennis star initially tried to say the dog wasn’t hers.

A pit bull registered to Serena Williams showed its true colors at her Palm Beach Gardens, Florida home last week and bit a security guard in the buttocks. According to the Associated Press, the 5-year-old tan pit bull named Bambi and a white Maltese were roaming around unsupervised Friday night at a guardhouse near her home when Bambi suddenly nipped at the guard's buttocks, reports AP. The guard escaped without injury because his wallet sat in the way of Bambi’s teeth. According to a Palm Beach Gardens Police incident report, Williams told police the Maltese was hers, but not the pit bull, and she was simply watching Bambi for a friend. She told police that both dogs got loose after she let them out. A check of the Maltese’s tags revealed that both dogs were indeed registered to Williams, Palm Beach County Animal Care and Control assistant director Dennis Yeskey told The Palm Beach Post.
