CAMERON, Texas (AP) - A jury acquitted a man whose six dogs fatally mauled his elderly neighbor in her front yard.
The jury deliberated several hours before finding Jose Hernandez, 55, not guilty Thursday of criminally negligent homicide in the November 2005 death of 76-year-old Lillian Stiles.
Investigators said Stiles was walking back to her house after getting off her riding lawn mower when the six dogs attacked her. She suffered severe bites over her entire body and was pronounced dead at her home near Thorndale, about 40 miles northeast of Austin.
