An eye witness account has it that the dog of the deceased bit the child of his neighbour some days back and the deceased was asked to take the child for treatment which he refused.

When he was finally taken to the hospital, he was pronounced dead on arrival.

A police source from Sapele Police divisional headquarters confirmed the report and said the investigation is ongoing.
