This horrific video shows the dramatic moment two 14-year-old girls were attacked by vicious pitbulls in a Milwaukee suburb.

Police arrived at the scene to find one of the dogs tackling a girl to the ground, while the other had pinned her friend down and was biting her.

One of the girls managed to break free from the pitbull and they both then pounced on the girl lying on the floor. 

Police arrived at the scene at North 48th Street and West Dean Road in Brown Deer village, in Wisconisn, to find the two pitbulls savagely attacking the two schoolgirls

A police officer wielding a gun then shot at the animal attacking the girl.

As the other crazed dog jumped up at the policeman he fired shots at the pitbull while trying to avoid the jaws of the manic animal.

The girl who had been attacked on the ground then limped off out of the picture. 

Both dogs then lay, bullet-riddled, on the grass.

However one pitbull then tried to run back to the house but was pursued and shot again by the officer.

The officer - who has been with the department for five years - fired six shots in total.

Brown Deer Police Chief Michael Kass described the attack as among the most 'horrific' he has witnessed in his 30 years of law enforcement. 

The dogs apparently lived in the home with one of the girls.

Officer Kass said the owner of the dogs was cooperating with the investigation. He is reportedly not related to either of the victims. 

He said: 'We know the initial attack occurred inside one of the victim's home. The girl attempted to get away from the dogs by fleeing outside. 

'However, the dogs pursued and attacked her and a friend until the officer intervened.'

He added: 'The officers realized the girls were in immediate peril and took action to stop the attack.'  

Officer Kass said the girls received severe bites and scratches all over the bodies but are recovering. 

Police have not yet decided whether the owner of the dogs should face criminal charges. Brown Deer does not have any specific ordinances regarding pit bulls.

One dog died at the scene while the other was taken to Milwaukee Area Domestic Animal Control Commission to be euthanized.
