I just wonder where the owner was and why the dog had access to the woman and child. I get tired of dogs paying the price for owner failures.

Why would a dog bite if you yelled? Mine wouldn't would yours? It esp makes me worried that it appears he was going for a child. I also do not think that all the neighbors would band together if this were a good dog. I think this owner should have thought about obedience classes WAY before this. I know if it were my child that the dog went after I would INSIST the dog be put down. That is the worst flaw of character ever in a GSD.
