A 90-year-old woman died on Monday after being attacked by the dog of owners of an old people’s home in which she was residing.
The Boxer/ Labrador cross has since been described as a gentle dog. But according to Correio da Manhã he attacked a member of staff taking him to his kennel on Monday afternoon, and then bit the elderly woman on the neck “and did not let go”.
CM says the dog’s owner was not present at the moment of the attacks.
