A 2-year-old Texas girl riding her tricycle was attacked and fatally mauled by her family's male pit bull, it was reported Friday.
The Dallas County Sheriff's Department responded to a 911 call Thursday afternoon from a man believed to be the girl's father, The Dallas Morning News reported.
Deputy Michael Ortiz said the girl's injuries were mainly to her face and head but neighbors who witnessed the attack said she also appeared to have been bitten on the throat and buttocks.
Witnesses said the girl's father was trimming weeds nearby when one of the family's pit bulls apparently broke it chains and attacked the child.
Authorities withheld the name of the victim and her father pending a decision on whether to file criminal charges in the case.

But having a pit bull gives you lots of street cred with the hip hop community. How are you supposed to keep it real unless you have a vicious pit bull that will kill children?

Likely there won't be any charges. Just yesterday a Texas jury found a man not guilty of criminally negligent homicide in a case where his dogs got out and mauled an elderly woman to death.
There are bills in the legislature to change this but for now they're still working their way through committee.

when that skinny freak said he killed Jon Benet Ramsey, he was in Thailand. The news broke, her killer was in Thailand and when the story was posted, about a zillion freepers posted "Thailand?!" one right after the other. Now it's a big joke.

To me, any father who keeps multiple pitt bulls around small children should have his kids taken away.
