A 27-year-old Nigerian woman, Patricia Masithela, has died of attack by her friend’s dogs in Italy.
By report, the incident happened late Monday night while Patricia was visiting a male acquaintance at his abandoned villa in the Lazio region.
At the time of her visit, as per the report, her friend was not at home, while the pack of starving dogs present mauled her.
The alarm she raised during her attack was said to have been responded to by neighbours who alerted police.
The responding officers met her in a pool of blood with deep wounds all over her body and had to shoot two of the dogs to have access to the scene, while the rest of the pack fled after the gunfire.
The deceased, the report added, had just moved to Italy.
