A 46-year-old woman died Thursday when she mauled by a pack of dogs at a Tuscaloosa County home.
Tuscaloosa County sheriff’s deputies, NorthStar EMS, Echola Volunteer Fire Department and animal control officers were dispatched at 9 a.m. Thursday to a medical call in the 13000 block of Boyd Road.
Tuscaloosa Violent Crimes Unit Capt. Jack Kennedy said the 911 caller reported that a woman was under attack by the dog pack.
Deputies arrived and attempted lifesaving measures, but the victim did not survive.
The attack happened in the yard and on the property of the dogs’ owners. The victim had gone to the residence to feed the dogs for the owner, who was out of town.
Out of respect for the victim’s family, Kennedy said, no additional information about the woman will be released.
Kenned said no criminal charges are expected.
