Charleston (AP) - The dozens of pit bulls found at a North Charleston 
facility authorities say was used to train dogs to fight are likely to be destroyed.

A judge will decide next week if the 47 animals should be turned over to 
Charleston County or returned to the owner David Tant of North Charleston.

He faces 68 charges, including animal fighting and cruelty, stemming from a 
raid Wednesday.

The dogs are being cared for at the John Ancrum SPCA.

SPCA Executive Director Alan Berger says the animals the training they have 
received makes it difficult to put them in homes.
