Teenage Girl Killed by Neglected Dog Pack After Attempting to Feed Them

  • Fifteen-Year-Old Makayla Fortner lost her life on Wednesday after a pack of neglected dogs attacked her as she was attempting to provide food for them at a residence in Alexander, Arkansas.
  • Neighbors had reported the uncontrolled, malnourished dogs to Saline County multiple times, but officials said no animal control existed and took no action.
  • Fortner and her mother cared for roughly 30 to 40 starving dogs on the premises while attempting to operate an informal animal rescue before the fatal attack took place.
  • After the attack, Benton City officials seized and euthanized 14 dogs, and a GoFundMe campaign raised $27,430 to support the family and veterinary costs.
  • The incident prompted an investigation and community grief, with locals saying the death might have been prevented if authorities had acted sooner.
