A 15-month-old boy was bitten by two pit bulls in Campolongo, Salerno province, and died from his injuries. The dogs were owned by a friend of the victim's mother. The mother herself tried to intervene, but was in turn attacked and injured. The woman was holding her son at the time of the incident, as recounted by the Mayor of Eboli. "Everything happened suddenly, in a few moments, and no one can explain how it could happen since these dogs have been there forever," said the first citizen. "This incident should be a warning to those who own these dogs, which are unfortunately special, with special needs. Those who have these animals must be very careful".
