The victim was bitten in the arm by a "brown dog that was not restrained by a leash near the softball fields," located at 260 East Pomfret Street, Carlisle, the police said. 

Following the attack, the dog and its owner "left the area without giving any information to the victim regarding the vaccination status of the dog or contact information for the owner," the police said.
