A grandfather and granddaughter in Tennessee are dead after an apparent pitbull attack on Wednesday, Dec. 3, according to a press release from the office of 14th Judicial District Attorney General Craig Northcott shared by the Tullahoma Police Department.

Neighbor Brian Kirby told Fox 8 News that he got home from work and “saw a woman in the middle of the street screaming.” After asking if she needed help, Kirby told the outlet that the woman ran towards the back of the home, and then he soon heard sirens approaching.

The press release said that the Tullahoma Police Department immediately arrived at the scene and “observed the pitbulls actively mauling the infant.”

The statement issued by Northcott’s office described the scene of the incident as “brutal.”
