A 62-year-old Italian woman died
after being attacked by a dog near Trapani in Sicily Friday
night, local sources said Saturday.
The woman, Erina Licari, died Friday evening in Petrosino, due
to the critical injuries sustained after being attacked by the
animal.
The victim was in front of her home near the municipal stadium,
in the area between via Trapani and viale Mediterraneo.
The injuries caused by the dog's bites left her fatally injured.
In fact, rescuers could do nothing but confirm her death.
The police intervened on site, and, coordinated by the Marsala
Prosecutor's Office, is carrying out investigations, also to
determine whether it was a stray dog, or someone's property, but
left free.
Licari was said to have been walking her little dog when she was
attacked.
Police said she may have been mauled by two animals, not just
one.
