No charges for North Texas man after his dog mauled his girlfriend and her 1-year-old son, Midlothian police say

A dog that mauled a Midlothian woman and her young son belonged to the woman's boyfriend, Midlothian PD confirmed on Friday.

The dog was euthanized and its owner is not facing charges at this time, police said. 

Midlothian officers initially responded to a 911 call around 9:15 p.m. on Sunday at Pecan Acres Mobile Park, where officers found the woman holding her son and the victims "covered in blood," police said. The boy was so severely injured that a police officer drove the ambulance to the hospital so both medics could tend to him.

As of last update, the boy was still in the hospital.

The woman, identified as 30‑year‑old Kelsey Welch, told officers that an unknown dog, possibly a bull terrier, entered their home and attacked her and her 1-year-old son, the department said in its initial statement about the case.
