Family thinks pit bulls “sent from Satan”
The parents of an infant mauled to death by their family pit bull is warning others about what they say is a dangerous breed.
The tragedy robbed the 40-something couple of the child they’d finally conceived after 17 years of marriage. The infant, who police have declined to identify, would have celebrated his first birthday on May 3.
“We were preparing for his first birthday. Now we have to prepare for a funeral,” the child’s uncle, Terrence Lovejoy, said Thursday. “This is a passionate plea to those with these animals. It doesn’t matter how much you think you know that dog … neighbors, parents: Get rid of them. They are sent from Satan.”
Eastpointe officials already are taking action. They’re asking police to compile statistics and dog complaints and plan to review the city’s ordinance for dangerous and vicious dogs at the next City Council meeting.
