 Alton police had to force entry into a locked second floor bathroom to find the victim bleeding in a bathtub. After being restrained by the neighbor, the dog got loose and started attacking Alton Fire Department EMS personnel. Police say they tried several non-lethal methods to get the animal to calm down, but ultimately had to euthanize it. The EMS squad determined the child's injuries were severe enough to require an airlift to a St. Louis hospital. Alton police and animal control officers are investigating.
