ADULTS HOME WHEN DOGS KILL GIRL

-

ELLABELL, Ga. — A toddler who slipped outside through a doggie door was mauled to death by her family’s seven dogs in the backyard while the attack went unnoticed by the child’s mother and other relatives inside their home, a Georgia sheriff said Thursday. The child’s grandmothe­r told investigat­ors she was lying in bed when she heard the pit bulls and pit bull mixes barking, and she looked outside her window to see them dragging the girl. She began yelling, “They’re killing Monica!” It was too late. Monica Renee Laminack, who would have turned 2 on June 1, was dead by the time an ambulance arrived.
