A baby girl has died and a relative has been injured in a dog attack at a home in Northamptonshire.
Police said they were called to an address in Daventry at around 10.30pm on Friday night after receiving reports that the baby, who was in the care of a relative, was being attacked.
Paramedics from East Midlands Ambulance Service attempted to resuscitate the six-month-old baby girl, but were unsuccessful.
She was taken to Northampton General Hospital where she was confirmed dead.
A relative in the home was injured in the attack, sustaining multiple bite wounds as she attempted to intervene to save the little girl.
Northamptonshire Police have not yet confirmed the breed of the dog, which was destroyed at the scene.
They say tests will be carried out by experts early next week to determine the breed.
Detective Sergeant Gary Baker, who is leading the investigation, said: "This was a deeply distressing and tragic incident and our thoughts are with the family who have been left devastated by the events of last night.
"Incidents such as these are extremely rare in this country, but that will be of little comfort to the relatives of this tragically young victim.
"The family have requested that they be left to grieve at this difficult time."
