The father of a 3-year-old girl killed in a dog attack in Roselawn late last year is facing charges in connection with his daughter’s death, court records show.
Warren Houston, 45, was indicted by a Hamilton County grand jury Tuesday on involuntary manslaughter, reckless homicide and endangering children, court records show.
Kingsley Wright was killed on Dec. 27 in a dog attack while at her father’s apartment in Roselawn for the holidays.
According to 911 call recordings and police documents, Kingsley’s father called Cincinnati police at 7:50 a.m., just after he reported waking up. He said he walked into the living room and found Kingsley lying dead on the floor.
“She’s completely tore apart,” Houston told the dispatcher.
After giving his daughter’s description to the dispatcher, who told him to put away any pets in the home before officers arrived, Kingsley’s father said they had terriers, and that the dogs were already in their cages.
He told the dispatcher that there was one other person in the apartment and they woke up at the same time. Houston said there did not appear to be a break-in because the front door to the apartment was locked.
“I don’t understand what went on,” Houston said.
Houston was not listed as an inmate at the Hamilton County Justice Center as of Wednesday morning. It is currently unclear when he will make his first court appearance.
