and her pet dog
was named Melissa Astacio, 44 years old. On December 20, she had a seizure in her own home, and her whole body convulsed. Then her 8-year-old Pitbull Ami rushed to bite her frantically. At about 5:20 in the afternoon, Melissa's daughter called her mother to be epileptic. She had an attack and was being bitten by a dog. The police and medical staff immediately rushed to the scene for rescue.
It is understood that the victim, Melissa, had a history of epilepsy before. After the police arrived at the scene, they were not allowed to use electric shocks on the pitbull. This stopped the crazy bite. Melissa was then rushed to the hospital for emergency treatment, but died from her injuries.
Melissa's daughter told the police: "I don't think the dog wants to attack her mother. I think it's just trying to help her mother, but it's just a dog and it doesn't understand the situation."
Pitbull Ami
"What happened that night has never happened before. Ami has never reacted strongly to her mother's seizures before. He would just stand by and do nothing. I don't want to see me 'S dog was hurt because of what it wanted to help," she added. After the
incident, the Pitbull was sent to the local animal care center, where it was quarantined, and the police are investigating the incident.
It is reported that the victim’s family has been raising the pitbull since he was a child. Although the pitbull is considered a dangerous dog, experts say that this breed is not necessarily more aggressive than other dogs.

According to the Boston Herald, animal research experts said: "Every dog has inherent habits, and no breed is inherently good or bad." The death of
Melissa shocked the entire community, and local people left flowers at the door of the victim's house. The daughter of the
victim said: "Mom always wanted our three brothers and sisters to live a better life than herself."
Currently, the police believe that Pitbull has committed no crime and has not punished him.
