Student, 18, mauled to death by three American Bully hell hounds in Thailand

A student was brutally mauled to death by his brother's three pet American Bully devil dogs.

Adisak Chansakulnee, 18, was playing with the pair of 18-month-old siblings Fino and Tesla when the hell hounds suddenly became aggressive and attacked him at his family's home in Lopburi, Thailand, on August 30 evening.

The vicious assault was caught on CCTV showing the schoolboy standing on a bed as the canines leapt up at him.

Adisak tried to fight off the savage creatures with a pillow before fleeing downstairs to escape. However, the demon dogs managed to chase him through the door.

The dogs were then joined downstairs by the four-year-old mother dog, Gas Tank, as all three continued mercilessly tearing into him until he lost consciousness.

Adisak's family found him on September 1 morning lying dead on his blood-stained bed. The dogs belonged to his older brother.

Police Lieutenant Nattapong Wongwang, an investigator from Tha Hin Police Station, said Adisak was believed to have been dead for at least 12 hours before he was discovered.

The investigating officer said: 'The victim was alone when the attack occurred. His mother and brother found him dead when they tried to call him and he didn't answer. The three dogs were still in the room where his corpse was.'

Cops said there were bite marks on the teen's head and limbs. Part of his skull was 'opened up' and both of his ears were missing. Blood spatters were throughout the house indicating a struggle.

Adisak's brother Abhisit, 23, said he owned the dogs and brought them home with him from Bangkok around a week ago. He claimed they were gentle and often played with Adisak.

He said: 'At the time of the incident, our father was at work and our mother had gone to see a doctor. I was on night shift and didn't return home in the evening as usual.

'I had left the three American Bullies with my younger brother. I think they may have been stressed because I wasn't at home. Perhaps the dogs did not know my brother well and he may not have known how to play with them. Or they wanted to protect their sleeping area.'

Abhisit said he could not bear to keep his pets as they now remind him of his brother's death.

The hellhounds were undergoing an evaluation by experts and are set to be rehomed.

Adisak's death comes a month after a villager was ripped apart by a neighbour's American Bully dogs in Khon Kaen province.

Lek Seepak, 70, was riding a bike to visit a neighbour when the hell hounds rushed out of the gate and attacked him on July 24 evening.

The dogs' owner, Saowanee, 46, found her pets tearing into the hapless old man's face as she was returning home from the grocery. She drove the dogs away and called an ambulance to rush Lek to the hospital. He died from severe injuries that same night.

Thailand is notoriously unregulated over pets and there are no laws preventing people from keeping dangerous dogs.

In March, a housewife nearly lost her arm when she was mauled by a pit bull in Chiang Mai province.

Fon, 30, was visiting a local, Lamduan Boonrit, 68, when the vicious dog, Rod, 10, pounced on her. She was rushed to the Nakornping Hospital for 'serious injuries to the left arm joint'.

While last December, a disabled man was killed in a brutal pit bull attack in Chiang Rai province.

Thong Mai Sung, 64, reportedly had his throat torn out by two savage pit bulls that had escaped from their cage. He was rushed to the Mae Sai Hospital, but succumbed to the grievous injuries.
