A thirteen-month-old baby died this morning after being attacked two pit bulls in a private residence in Salerno, southern Italy, a short distance from Naples.
While the baby was in his uncle’s arms, suddenly the two dogs – which belong to a family friend – attacked him “grabbing” it from the man and wounding it all over his body. The child’s mother tried to save him, putting her body forward as a shield, and was taken to hospital with serious injuries.
An ambulance rushed to the scene of the tragic incident, but the child had already succumbed to his injuries.
“They literally grabbed it out of his uncle’s hands and bit it. The veterinary service will take both dogs that did not belong to the family affected by this tragedy but to another family that lives in the same house. It was a brutal attack and despite the fact that relatives of the child intervened to free him, nothing could be done,” the mayor of Eboli (Salerno) told the Italian news agency ANSA. Mario Conte. “It all happened suddenly, within moments and no one can explain how it happened as these dogs were always there. The child’s family probably rented the house. It’s a tragedy that has shocked the entire community,” the mayor said.
