Police are investigating the death of a pensioner who was killed when he was mauled by an “out-of-control dog”.

A 79-year-old man has died after a dog attacked him in the garden of his home.

The death of a schoolgirl apparently savaged by a pack of dogs may not lead to a criminal prosecution.

The family of a girl who is thought to have been killed by a pack of dogs has been left “devastated”, police said today.

A 15-year-old girl has been found dead in a house in the UK where police also found five dogs “aggressive and out of control”.
