ST LOUIS CITY–A 54-year-old man was arrested by St Louis Metropolitan Police Department (SLMPD) District 6 detectives on Wednesday for involuntary manslaughter related to the death of Gladys Anthony. She passed away during surgery on the morning of January 16 due to injuries she sustained from a neighbor’s three dogs mauling her the night before.
The case was sent to the Circuity Attorney's office but charges were refused due to a lack of evidence said a spokesperson for SLMPD. St. Louis City Department of Health confirmed the dogs were euthanized on January 24.
