Stray dogs maul a toddler to death in Chandigarh
A pack of stray dogs mauled a one-and-a-half-year-old boy to death in Chandigarh. The incident occurred yesterday when the victim Ayush (a resident of Palsora) was playing with his three siblings in the park, while his mother, who works as a domestic help, went to a house to clean utensils. Too small to run for safety, the boy was attacked by the dogs.
Residents accused civic authorities of doing nothing to curb dog-menace
Later, a police control room vehicle took him to Government Multi-specialty Hospital, where he was declared as brought dead, police said. Residents of the area accused civic authorities of doing little to curb the stray dog menace. They also complained that growing number of stray dogs in parks and gardens had made it difficult for the people and especially children to use them.
