A Georgia dog owner was arrested and charged with second-degree murder after her pet fatally mauled her infant great-granddaughter earlier this week.
Migdelia Guadalupe, 56, also sustained injuries in the ordeal involving her American Bulldog-Great Pyrenees mix and the infant, identified as Serenity Garnett.
A woman told reporters that she had once shared the home with Guadalupe but moved out three years ago when the aggressive dog “Blade” attacked and killed her little Chihuahua.
“The dog jumped this big old board they had set up so he couldn’t get out. Or he didn’t come in the house came straight down the hallway and snatched my dog banged against the walls broke her neck broke her back. it was just horrible,” she told WRDW.
“She [Guadalupe] didn’t have the strength to deal with that dog,” a neighbor added. “That dog had muscles coming out the wazoo. When he got out occasionally it was very hard to get back.”
Guadalupe has since the incident been released from the hospital and charged with second-degree murder and possession of methamphetamine.
