Daughters Pit Bulls Kill Chicago Man in His Home

Is it certain the dogs killed him? It says that he was covered in bites, but he might of died of something unrelated and then they attacked him...just a thought.

While that might be possible I suspect the "covered in blood" hint tells the tale.

Dead bodies don't bleed nearly as much as a live one will.

That's reading more into a description than I would, for sure.

You can look this up, but there are CDC statistics that state that pit bulls are overwhelmingly responsible for the majority of canine related fatalities of humans. Rottweillers are second.

That's coz small dogs bite hardly get recorded as it's not fatal enough to go to the ER. A lot of dogs got lump as pit bull when they cant determine the breed too.

yeah, that pesky detail seems to have been overlooked by someone.

Journalists never embellish. The point being that there is nothing in the article that conclusively points to the death being as a result of dog bites, although of course it might be.

People, please don't buy these too often ill-bred dogs, they can be dangerous, especially when two or more are together. I know they are sweet as sugar in your lap but believe me, these same dogs that mauled her father to death were the same ones that cuddled on her couch as they watched TV.

Daughters Pit Bulls Kill Chicago Man in His Home

CHICAGO (AP) - Chicago police are investigating the death of a 56-year-old man who was apparently fatally mauled by his daughter's pit bulls.

The daughter told authorities she came home Sunday night and found her father, Johnny Wilson, lying on the living room floor, covered in blood. The Cook County Medical Examiner's office said Wilson suffered numerous bite wounds on various parts of his body.

The daughter turned over four adult pit bulls and two puppies to Chicago Animal Care and Control, where the dogs were being evaluated.

Neighbors said there was no sign of dog fighting at the residence, and that Wilson had never seemed to have any problem with the dogs in the past.

No charges had been filed as of Monday morning.
