INDIANAPOLIS — A woman died after being attacked by dogs on the city's west side.
The Marion County Coroner's Office identified the victim Monday as 60-year-old Kimberly Williams.
According to IMPD, Williams was dogsitting at a home in the 600 block of Olin Avenue on Friday. Officers arrived at the home around 6 p.m. that night.
Williams was found suffering from dog bites and died at the scene.
"This is a tragic incident," said IMPD Sgt. Anthony Patterson. "IMPD views any loss of life as a tragedy, but in circumstances like this where you have animals attack...we may never know why the dogs attacked her."
According to police, the woman was attacked by at least one dog in the yard of the home. The dogs remained confined to the yard after the attack.
Indianapolis Animal Care Services said the owner of the dogs surrendered them to IACS. Both dogs were euthanized.
