The dog got free from its owner in the nightmare incident after it “broke free from its collar," West Midlands Police said.
Many tried to help the people the dog attacked, while others fled to escape the rampage.
In one particularly upsetting part of the footage, the girl can be seen being dragged to the floor and savaged on the ground.
The girl and two men were hospitalised.
Home Secretary Suella Braverman has since joined calls to ban the breed.
One of the people attacked was Yousef Ahadzai, who works at the Euro Carwash next to the Texaco petrol station where the attack took place.
Speaking in Pashto translated by a friend Yousef said: "I was scared, the dog bit me. The dog was out of control, it went crazy.
"I saw the girl be attacked, she was bitten. I saw the dog and I came out. I was really scared."
His friend, who chose to remain anonymous, said that Yousef would be going to a GP to check he hadn’t got an infection from the bite from the "crazy" dog.
A new statement was issued today (September 11) by West Midlands Police, which said: "We are continuing to investigate after three people were injured when a dog broke free from its collar in Bordesley Green on Saturday afternoon.
