PIT BULL ATTACK
Police said a woman's suspicious death on the city's west side Tuesday night was discovered after a dog attack.

Officers responded to a home on Orange Street around 9 p.m. and found Velma Leake, 92, "clearly deceased."

Police said Leake lived at the home with other family members, one of whom woke up and went downstairs to find Leake had been mauled by a pit bull owned by the residents.

The Monroe County Medical Examiner's Office is investigating the cause of death. Police said it's unclear whether she died as a result of the mauling or from other causes.

The dog is in the custody of Rochester Animal Services pending further investigation.
