"Baby dies after being
mauled by family dog "
VALINDA, (CA) Oct. 8 –
A 5-week-old baby girl, left unattended for a short time, was mauled
to death last night by the family’s Pomeranian dog.
AN UNCLE was babysitting the newborn while her parents were
out of the country, said Sgt. James Beaumon of the Los Angeles Sheriff’s
Department. He left the infant on a bed unattended while he went to
the kitchen to prepare a bottle for her. When he returned, he found
the dog holding the victim by the head, Beaumon said. The uncle rescued
the child from the dog’s mouth and called for help. The baby
was taken to a local hospital where she died from her injuries, said
Deputy Valentine Rosario of the Los Angeles Sheriff’s Department.
The name of the child has not been released due to age and pending
parental notification, Rosario said. |
