Police in Siaya County have launched investigations into the death of a 28-year-old woman and her son who were mauled by two-hybrid dogs on Monday in Siranga village, Ugenya.
In the morning incident, the woman and her one-year-old son are said to have been walking alongside the road when the rogue dogs attacked and bit them several times.
According to the Deputy Sub-County Police Commander for Ugenya, James Ngao, the hybrid dogs that were reported to have gone astray last night are reared by a neighbor.
“According to the owner, two dogs were not accounted for last night and he slept knowing that they will return today morning,” he said.
According to the police boss, he dispatched officers who rushed to the scene, but by the time they arrived, the woman and the child were already dead, with dog bites all over their bodies.
“He reported that members of the public who had rushed to the cries of the woman and her son managed to kill the dogs,” he said.
The bodies of the deceased were taken to the Ukwala sub-county hospital mortuary to await postmortem examinations.
