Authorities are investigating after a UPS driver was attacked by two pit bulls in Jackson County while attempting to deliver a package.

According to Sheriff Mike Ezell, it happened Friday at a home in Escatawpa.

A worker with the electric company was passing by at the time when he saw the dogs attacking the man, said the sheriff. The witness immediately called 911 and helped get the dogs off of the victim.

The UPS worker was hospitalized with severe injuries but the sheriff did not have an update on his current condition.

For the 14 years James P. Hoffa’s father Jimmy was at the helm of the Teamsters, he was in bed with the mafia. But when James became president in 1998, he ran on a campaign of diversity and anti-corruption.

To put it mildly, Jimmy Hoffa was a controversial man. Until Hoffa’s sudden disappearance in 1975, he had no problem courting organized crime as leader of the International Brotherhood of Teamsters. But his notorious legacy did not stick to his son, James P. Hoffa.

Despite leading the same union as his father for nearly 25 years, James P. Hoffa had little in common with him besides their infamous name. Indeed, the younger Hoffa ran the union with almost surgical precision, turning it into one of the strongest organized labor unions in the country.
