West Valley City is determined to hunt down killer dog that has attacked other animals owned by students at a school with a farm program

West Valley City has put together a task force to catch a killer — but it's not a manhunt, it's a dog-hunt.

The city called in help Tuesday in an attempt to capture the canine that continues to kill animals at Roots Charter High School, but despite assistance from animal control departments in neighboring cities the dog once again escaped. Now the the Utah Department of Natural Resources is promising to get involved.
