List[edit]

Date Location Victim's name Victim's age Category of dog Circumstances
January 5 Houston, Texas Christine Bell 43 years Pit bull (1) and pit bull mix (1) Killed by loose dogs in an attack in which two other people were also injured, one seriously. Animal control caught one of the dogs, while the owner fled with the second dog, a pit bull mix. Later the owner surrendered the second dog plus a third dog not believed to be part of the killing. The owners of the dogs were cited for keeping the animals in deplorable conditions, not licensing or vaccinating them, and allowing them to run at large. Homicide detectives were determining whether to press criminal charges.[1][2]
January 6 New Braunfels, Texas Betty Clark 74 years Pit bulls (2) Elderly widow was walking alone when neighbors' dogs badly mauled her. She was saved by another neighbor and her boyfriend, who used a gun to scare off the dogs, but not before receiving wounds that caused her death in the hospital 16 days later. After the attack, the dogs were euthanized and their owners were arrested for allowing a dog attack that resulted in a death.[3] The attack was first reported in the news media 4 months after the incident in an article about an unrelated attack.[4][5] The dog's owners were indicted and arrested in 2014 for "Attack by dog resulting in death". Five years later, their cases are still ongoing with a jury trial scheduled May 6, 2019.[6][7]
January 17 Bloomington, Illinois Kara Hartrich 4 years Pit bull (2 males, 1 female) Died from blood loss following injuries sustained to head and neck after being attacked by the dogs while her grandmother was babysitting Kara and her 2-year-old sister. When the grandmother attempted to intervene, the dogs turned on her; she then focused on protecting the 2-year-old child and was unable to stop the attack on Kara. Emergency personnel were called and Kara was taken to a hospital but died from her injuries. The dogs were surrendered to McLean County Animal Control, where they were euthanized after a 10-day observation period. No charges were filed against the owners.[8][9]
January 26 Corona, California Annabell Martin 89 years Rottweilers (3) The dogs belonged to the woman's grandson. He told police they had no history of aggressive behavior.[10] Other details are not known, as there is little media coverage available from the incident.
February 7 Dayton, Ohio Klonda Richey 57 years Mastiff mix (2) or Cane Corso mix (2) The woman was attacked in the driveway of her home in the early morning hours by two mastiff mixes that belonged to a neighbor. The dogs were shot and killed when they attacked police officers who responded to the call. The couple who owned the dogs were both sentenced for "failure to control dogs".[11][12] A wrongful death suit was filed against the county dog warden and his agency.[13] The victim had made 36 calls to authorities about the dogs over the prior two years before her death (in addition to 20 other anonymous calls), built a fence and installed security cameras.[14] Richey's death sparked several attempts (still ongoing) to change the vicious dog laws in Ohio.[15]
February 17 Temple, Texas Je'vaeh Mayes 2 years Pit bull The girl's family was watching a friend's female dog and its two puppies that were being kept in the backyard. The 2-year-old girl went out into the yard alone without her parents' knowledge and was attacked by the mother of the two puppies.[16][17] The dog was chained in the backyard at the time, was later euthanized, and no criminal charges were to be filed.[18]
February 24 High Point, North Carolina Braelynn Rayne Coulter 3 years Pit bull Was playing in her yard when her family's dog suddenly attacked. Her mother tried to stop it, but the dog attacked her as well. The family said the dog had never been aggressive, but neighbors said it had escaped and attacked a dog. Both mother and daughter were taken to the hospital, where Braelynn died. The dog was taken by authorities and scheduled to be euthanized after police finished their investigation.[19][20]
February 26 Tallassee, Alabama Summer Sears 4 years White shepherd mix, with possible involvement of a black retriever mix Killed while playing behind the trailer her grandfather rented.[21]

March 1 Killeen, Texas Raymane Robinson Jr. 2 years Bull mastiff Walking home from the playground with an 8-year-old girl, when the dog accidentally escaped from his owner's garage and attacked the girl. A teenage boy saved the girl, but then the dog immediately attacked Raymane and dragged him off. Someone shot at the dog, frightening it into dropping the boy and running back into the garage. Police and EMTs arrived and took them both to the hospital, where doctors saved the girl but the boy died of penetrating and blunt injuries.[23]
March 14 Phoenix, Arizona Nancy Newberry 77 years Pit bull Victim was feeding 4-year old Titan, one of the family's three dogs, when he bit her in the abdomen. The dog had a history of aggression and biting people, and was euthanized per family request.[24]
March 25 Houma, Louisiana Mia DeRouen 4 years Pit bull Family's pet pit bull attacked while she was watching television with her mother. The mother, also injured, had to barricade herself and the injured child in a bedroom until police arrived. Responding officers were forced to shoot the pit bull in order to enter the apartment. The dog, Niko, was of an unusually large size, weighing in at 130 lbs. The victim's family has refused cooperation with authorities into further investigation. Another dog, a 6-month-old female, was removed from the scene.[25][26][27][28]
March 31 Thornton, Mississippi Christopher Malone 3 years Pit bull (2) Christopher Malone's mother found the boy's body behind the family's Holmes County home. The Holmes County Sheriff's Department said it happened around 4 p.m. No one saw the attack. Family members said they've had the dogs since they were puppies, and the dogs had been around children their entire lives.[29]
April 1 Kaufman, Texas Dorothy Hamilton 85 years Pit bull (2) A woman was found dead at her home in Kaufman on Monday afternoon, and police believe that pit bulls are responsible for the killing. It was around 4:45 p.m. when authorities were called to a residence in the 1400 block of East First North Street. When police arrived at the scene, they discovered 85-year-old Dorothy Hamilton dead in the living room of her home. Investigators also found a pair of aggressive pit bulls inside of the house. Animal control put down the two dogs that were inside the house when police found Hamilton. Authorities said that the dogs were being held in a bedroom, but it looks as though they broke down the door in order to attack the woman.[30]
April 6 Riverside, Alabama John Harvard 5 years Pit bull Playing outside his home when neighbor's dog, between 80–100 lbs., attacked. His 9-year-old brother couldn't get the dog off him, so he ran in the house and got his father, who shot at the animal, which broke off the attack and fled. After the attack, a neighbor called the EMTs, and an ambulance took him to the hospital where he was pronounced dead. The dog was taken to a veterinary clinic. Before the attack, John and the dog had played together; the dog had been legally allowed free range with no previous complaints; and the town had had a nuisance law but no leash law.[31][32]
April 11 San Antonio, Texas Petra Aguirre 83 years American Staffordshire Terrier mix Victim was feeding cats in her own backyard when the neighbor's dog crawled under a fence and attacked her. She died two weeks later.[33] The dog, who had previously bitten a child, was euthanized and the dog's owner sentenced to five years in prison.[34]
April 28 Sebring, Florida Jessica Norman 33 years Unclear (see text) The woman was found dead of a methamphetamine overdose. An autopsy found that she had bites that "appeared to come from a canine" and which "contributed to the death."[35] At the time that she died, neighbors had seen three aggressive pit bulls running loose in the neighborhood. Investigators attempted to link the dogs to the woman's death with DNA. They were able to show by DNA that hairs on her were of canine origin, but were unable to match the DNA with that of the specific dogs.
May 3 Smiths Station, Alabama Katie Morrison 20 years Pit bull (3) In her friend's yard playing with the dogs. When she picked up something from the ground, one of the dogs attacked, and the other two joined in.

May 7 Felton, Delaware Kasii Haith 4 years Pit bull (3) The child had gone with his pregnant mother to visit one of the mother's friends and was playing in front of the home with the dogs, which he had reportedly played with in the past. At some point the mother looked outside to see the three pitbulls attacking the child and rushed to help him, at which point the pitbulls attacked her. Nearby HVAC workers attempted to beat the dogs back with PVC pipes but were unsuccessful. The child was pronounced dead on scene by paramedics, and the pregnant mother was taken to the hospital for treatment of injuries and monitoring of the unborn child. The dogs had not been vaccinated against rabies and were euthanised.[39]

It had bitten a person once, but had drawn no blood. After the attack, the dog was euthanized.[43]
July 4 Benton County, Mississippi Derrick Sanders 45 years Pit bulls Found dead, naked, throat split, and in a horrible state, police originally thought victim was murdered[44] - until two months later when the victim's cousin David Glass was found barely alive, mauled by pit bulls.

Cane Corsos was reported in Lapeer, Michigan. The jogger died. The two owners of the dogs were charged with second degree murder, which carries a potential sentence of life in prison, and ultimately pleaded guilty to "owning a dangerous animal, causing death", receiving a prison sentence for a minimum of 57 months to a maximum of 15 years. The couple may also face deportation, as they were under investigation for falsifying citizenship documents at the time of the mauling. "The dogs involved in the attack have a history of escaping from their kennel and have bitten at least twice before."[53][54]
August 4 Madison Township, Butler County, Ohio Cindy Whisman 59 years Pit bull or pit bull-Presa Canario mix[55] Was playing with her 2-year-old grandson in the yard when the dog attacked.
