Infant dies in Detroit dog attack

Detroit — A 3-week-old baby died Thursday evening after being mauled by a pit bull on the city's west side, police said.

The child's mother, 24, carried her in a car seat into a home in the 7700 block of Stahelin around 5:45 p.m.

The woman placed the car seat on the floor and walked away for a moment. When she returned, she found a pit bull attacking her daughter, police said.

The infant was rushed to a hospital, but she died from her injuries.

Police took the dog from the home Thursday evening as neighbors stood by. Some, angry, shouted that they would have stabbed the dog if they had witnessed the attack.
