Cheyenne River Sioux Tribe leaders say a child is dead from a possible feral dog attack.
Chairman Ryman LeBeau said the child was found Saturday by a bike near Eagle Butte. The child had injuries that LeBeau said may have been from a dog attack, but investigators are awaiting autopsy results to confirm.
In the wake of the incident, Animal Control is patrolling and picking up dogs in the area that are not leashed or in a fenced area "to ensure the safety of the community," LeBeau said.
