This shocking footage captures a savage pit bull attack on a packed subway train in New York.
Video posted on Instagram shows the crazed animal with its jaws locked on a young woman's foot.
Passengers can be heard screaming as the owner, a man in a blue jacket, struggles to pull the animal away.
A woman screamed "Get the dog off of her!" while another man shouted "call the police!"
Another passenger calmly helps the victim, untying her shoe laces so it can be removed.
The animal continues to shake the foot from side to side with the owner powerless to pull it off.

Eventually, the shoe comes loose and the owner manages to grab it and throw it back to the victim as he pulls the dog into a carrying cage.
A transit spokesperson told the New York Post the incident has been referred to police.
"Our rules require non-service animals to be kept inside containers and not disturbing other passengers,” said MTA spokesman Shams Tarek.
"What’s happening in this video is disturbing and a clear violation of our rules.
"We flagged this video for NYPD, which is responsible for enforcing Transit rules."
