Cleveland Police confirmed that a three-month-old girl tragically died at her home on Hardale Grove in Redcar, England, following a horrific dog attack. Witnesses reported hearing a woman cry for help, prompting armed officers to respond shortly after 1:30 PM on April 9. During the incident, one dog was destroyed on the street, while another was found at the property and later also destroyed after being assessed. Both dogs were identified as pocket bully types, which are not classified as prohibited breeds. A 31-year-old woman suffered an arm injury from the attack and received hospital treatment. A 45-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of being in charge of a dangerously out-of-control dog causing injury resulting in death, but has since been released on conditional bail. Chief Superintendent Rachel Stockdale expressed condolences to the family and urged respect for their privacy during this difficult time. The investigation remains ongoing, and police are seeking information from the public, including any relevant mobile or doorbell footage.
