Pennsylvania woman mauled to death while feeding neighbor’s dogs as young son looks on: police

A Pennsylvania woman was viciously mauled to death on Thursday while feeding her neighbor’s dogs as her young son watched in horror, according to police.

The incident occurred in the small town of Uniontown shortly before 7 a.m. local time, when the woman, whose name has not been released, was reportedly attacked by two large dogs while delivering the animals’ breakfast. The woman’s son, who is said to be no more than 10 years old, was present and had to be restrained by police officers who arrived on the scene.

Uniontown Police Chief Jason Cox described the attack as “horrific” and said the woman was “severely injured” by the animals. “We’re still trying to determine the exact cause of her death,” Cox said, “but it’s clear that these dogs were responsible.”

The dogs, both described as pit bulls, have since been taken into custody and are currently undergoing tests to determine if they were infected with a rabies-like virus. The preliminary results of those tests are expected to be released next week.

The woman’s death has been ruled a homicide, and the case is now being investigated by the Fayette County Coroner’s Office.

The tragedy has left the small town reeling, with many residents still in shock. “It’s just so heartbreaking,” said one neighbor. “We can’t believe something like this could happen here.”

The woman’s family and friends have not yet commented publicly on the tragedy.
