Four year old killed in Rottweiler attack in North Carolina
Corey McLaughlin of Atlanta was mauled Friday evening after climbing a fence to retrieve a football at his grandfather’s home. He died later at Cape Fear Valley Medical Center. Animal control officer Sgt. Johnny Smith said the attack appeared provoked by territorial protection or guarding puppies. The other dogs showed no blood. The boy’s brothers warned him not to go after the ball alone.
