A 70-year-old New Jersey woman is hospitalized after being brutally attacked by two pit-pulls.

Maria Zaldana of Bayonne was mauled Friday morning outside the dogs' home on West 34th street.

Officials say she suffered numerous puncture wounds, and has skin torn off her face, knee, calf and scalp.

The dog's owner was in Florida at the time of the attack.

The the dog owner's sister, Kristy Manno was looking after the animals at the time. She said she ran outside as soon as she heard the victim's screams.

Manno later told police she has accidentally left the gate open, allowing the male pit bull to pill Zaldana against a truck while the female dog barked. She had been filling up their water bowls at the time.

Zaldana had been just steps from the floral shop where she's worked for the past 25 years.

The dogs have been placed in quarantine at the Associated Humane Society in Newark.

Manno was issued two summonses for having unleashed dogs.
