Varna - Three pit bulls owned by a tenant living in a trailer on the property killed Jason Walter, a seven year old boy, who was visiting the owner of the property. The owner's mixed breed dog, Blondie, was outside at the time as well, and was euthanized with the three pit bulls.

"We've had dog bites, but we've never had anything like this, nothing fatal," said Sheriff Rob Russell.

Jason was just beginning second grade.
