A 3-year-old has died after being mauled by two dogs in Roselawn on Friday, according to Cincinnati police spokesperson Lt. Jonathan Cunningham.

The attack occurred just after 8 a.m. inside a home on the 7000 block of Stillwell Road, Cunningham said.

The 3-year-old's identity has not been released as of Saturday morning, nor has any other information on the attack.

The Enquirer reached out to the Hamilton County Coroner's Office, but further information could not be provided at this time.


The child is at least the third dog attack fatality in Ohio in 2024. In July 2024, 6-year-old Jaxson Dvorak died when his uncle's dogs attacked him in Lorain. In October, 73-year-old Jo Echelbarger was mauled to death by her neighbor's two pit bull mix dogs as she worked in her garden.

Each year in Ohio, about 17,000 dog bites are reported to local public health agencies. Experts say at least another 17,000 bites go unreported.

Nationwide, 1 million of the 4.7 million people bitten by dogs each year require medical treatment.

Kids under 10 account for nearly half of the bite victims and are overrepresented in fatalities.
