To: alternatives?

Yes. There are two other articles on the attack prior to the death of the victim. This story includes links to the other two, and I do recommend reading all three - including the comments on each (victim and dog owner’s family members commented) for a better idea of the story.

Apparently, the dog that killed the 91 year old man was owned by his son’s girlfriend. Or his nephew’s girlfriend. I am still not entirely certain.

I am sorry, I do not know what the acronym “BFL” means.

I found that to be the case many years ago, and have not been back.

Yes - or, as in this case, the owner’s relative, loved one, father, mother, wife, husband, child, grandmother, grandfather, friend, or just visitor to the home.

I believe the proportion of deadly attacks of the above to the whole is about one-third.

Call it 33%. I can pull the statistic if you wish - it varies a bit year to year, but overall, it’s a working number.

It’s not just a clue. Your intuition is correct.

It’s Bump For Later so I can come back to it. The guy that died was a friend of my folks. Sad!

“Big illegal pot growing area. Doing massive illegal activities makes people act rather paranoid...”

Funny you say that. I’ve lived in Humboldt my entire life. The more legal pot gets the stranger it gets here.

I am very sorry for the loss.

This is the first time in six months’ posting that I have heard of a Freeper having a personal connection to a victim in a story I have posted.

I wonder if there are others. Norski.
