Police and Riverside children's services officials were investigating the case of a 6-month-old baby who was disfigured this weekend by two dogs at a Murrieta apartment.
The baby was attacked Saturday when inside a baby carrier. Murrieta police told the Press-Enterprise that two dogs -- a pit bull and pit bull mix -- mauled the baby, tearing through his diapers and damaging his genitals. The baby was rushed to a local hospital, but his condition was not revealed Wednesday.
Authorities told the paper that there is no evidence the baby did anything to provoke the attack and that he had been left unattended when the dogs found him.
The dogs were seized by Riverside County animal control. KTLA News reported the dogs are set to be destroyed
