In England, a tragic incident has occurred once more, with a canine taking a human life. A 53-year-old man met his unfortunate end at the hands of his own pet, as reported by authorities in Lancashire county's northwestern region. The canine in question was an XL Bully, a breed that the British government had forbidden due to a series of fatal occurrences, although under specific circumstances, it can still be kept.

Authorities were notified on Tuesday and euthanized the dog, confirming that it posed an imminent threat and that there was no other feasible option to protect other individuals from harm.

"This is a profoundly sad situation that led to a man's demise," the authorities expressed. The particulars of the incident in Accrington are still under investigation. Specialist officers are providing assistance to the man's family during this challenging time. Regrettably, fatal dog-related incidents occur sporadically in England.

The tragedy unfolded in the northern region of Lancashire county, specifically in Accrington. Despite the restrictions on XL Bully breeds, another fatal incident involving this breed has been reported.
