Aiden McGrew Killed by a rescue dog, while father slept

A two-month-old child was killed and dismembered by a dog in his family's South Carolina home as his father slept, authorities said Friday.

Aiden McGrew's mother Chantel called 911 when she got home around 11am from a doctor's appointment and discovered the boy's leg was severed.

The Dorchester County Sheriff’s Office said the boy was attacked and dismembered by a recently rescued retriever.

The dog, who looks to be a golden retriever or some sort of mix, was new to the home, WBTV reported.

Dorchester County Coroner Chris Nisbet said the boy was bitten and dismembered, but he refused to answer additional questions about the infant's injuries.

He said he hopes an autopsy scheduled for Saturday will determine if the boy was dead before the dog dismembered him, the Associated Press reported. Read More
