Two young children were killed and their mother was injured after being attacked by two family dogs in Tennessee, law enforcement says.
Two young Tennessee children died Wednesday after they were attacked by two family dogs, the Shelby County Sheriff’s Office said.
Their mother was also injured in the attack north of Memphis around 3:30 p.m., according to the sheriff’s office. The children who were attacked, a 2-year-old girl and a 5-month-old boy, were pronounced dead at the scene, it said. The sheriff’s office said Thursday that the mother’s condition had been upgraded and that she was now stable. Officials earlier described her as being in critical condition.
The two pit bulls responsible were euthanized Thursday by Memphis Animal Services, the sheriff’s office tweeted."This is still under active investigation," sheriff's office spokesperson John Morris said Thursday.
