In unending attacks by stray dogs in Baheri tehsil of Bareilly district, a 10-yearold was mauled to death, the seventh kid to have died in the past year, with more than 30 children being attacked in the same period.

The boy , identified as Amit Kumar, a student of class II, became the seventh victim of dog attacks. Amit, along with his friend, had on Sunday evening gone to the outskirts of their native Siyatheri village to pluck wild berries when they were surrounded by a pack of dogs. While his friend managed to escape, dogs attacked Amit and hurt his head, neck and stomach. When the villagers reached the spot, the child had sustained severe injuries. He was rushed to hospital where doctors declared him brought dead.

According to the district administration and forest department stray dogs have become feral in the region after scavenging on animal residue like flesh, blood and bones, which are mostly discarded from slaughterhouses.

Sub-divisional magistrate of Baheri, Paras Nath Maurya, said, “We conducted a meeting with the forest officials and Nagar Palika on Monday .Forest department has been asked to identify the areas where ferocious dogs are present and ways to deal with them.“
