According to the Ashland County Sheriff's Office, deputies responded to a distress call on Saturday, where they found the child in critical condition, having suffered severe bites to his neck and ear. The boy was immediately airlifted to a medical facility for urgent care.
Further investigation revealed the horrifying details: the child had been handcuffed by both his hands and feet when the pit bull attacked him. Evidence supporting these claims was discovered during a search of the residence.
The boy's mother, who was living at the Savannah home with a relative of the property owner, has been arrested. Two other individuals, including the homeowner who was found hiding within the house, and the mother's boyfriend, who allegedly assisted in restraining the child, have also been taken into custody.
The dog involved in the attack has been classified as vicious and is now in the custody of authorities. The investigation into this disturbing case continues.
