Two-year-old boy dies after horrific dog attack at a Cowra motel

A two-year-old boy has died after suffering “serious injuries” as a result of an attack involving two dogs at a motel in regional NSW.

A little boy has died after being mauled by two dogs in NSW’s central west on Tuesday morning.

The two-year-old boy was left fighting for life after he was attacked at around 10.20am at a motel on Grenfell Road in Cowra.

Police officers rushed to the scene, but the boy had already been taken to Cowra Hospital with injuries to his face and neck.

He was then flown to Westmead hospital with “serious injuries” but tragically died.

A police spokesperson said they believe he was bitten by the two dogs, who have been secured and seized by local council.

Police established a crime scene at the motel, where specialist officers continue to investigate the incident.

The incident comes after a seven-year-old girl was attacked by a dog on a south Sydney street.

Nadia Taoube was walking home with her daughter on Sunday when a dog raced up to them, pushing the seven-year-old to the ground.

The shocking moment was caught on a CCTV camera, with the girl trying to run away from the dog despite being repeatedly jumped on.

“I’m going to die,” the little girl screamed.

Brothers Mohamed and Billy Zahr run out to help after hearing the girl’s screams.

“It was just going at her … she was screaming and crying,” Billy Zahr told 7 News.

“As soon as I started running I could hear the screaming … she looked so terrified,” Mohamed Zahr said.

The little girl suffered minor scratches but has reportedly had trouble sleeping since the attack.
