A dog that mauled its owner to death while he was being interviewed by a BBC film crew had attacked him before, a neighbour said.

The man, named locally as Mario Perivoitos, 41, was with the film crew at his home in Wood Green on 20 March when his Staffordshire bull terrier attacked, biting him in the neck.

The crew called an ambulance shortly before 10.30pm and the man was taken to hospital, where he was pronounced dead two hours later[....]

A neighbour who gave his name as Tayfun said on Wednesday that the dog had previously attacked Perivoitos. “There were one or two previous occasions when the dog attacked,” he said. “Six or seven months ago the dog bit him on the leg. We heard him shout at the dog and he came running out with blood on his leg.”

Despite this, he said Perivoitos “loved the dog more than himself”. He said the dog was generally quiet, adding: “I never saw the dog be vicious.”

The crew have not been identified and the BBC declined to say what the documentary was about. The police said it was “entirely unrelated to the Met’s BBC documentary”, referring to the series The Met: Policing London, the second series of which has recently finished filming.

Neighbours in the block said Perivoitos was believed to have lived in the building for more than 20 years. Geoff Morgan, 52, who was at home at the time of the attack, heard a commotion coming from a flat below him. He said: “I heard shouting – ‘Get him off! Get him off me!’

“He was shouting really loudly. He was bleeding from his neck. There was a lot of blood.”

Other residents described Perivoitos as a chaotic and disruptive neighbour. Several windows of his flat were boarded over and the order banning him from having visitors was taped to the front door.

“A lot of people were coming in there,” said a neighbour who gave his name as Pierre. “There would be fighting, sometimes shouting. A couple of times the police had to come. They even broke the door down.”

“At one point it was a crack house,” said Tayfun. “There were so many of them smoking. There were needles everywhere.”

On the night the dog attacked, she heard screams of “Help! Get the dog,” she said. “Everybody knows he’s on drugs but no matter how he was, he didn’t deserve to die like that.”

Perivoitos had been alone in the flat since his mother went into a care home last year, she said, adding that neighbours had speculated that the dog had been trying to protect him. “He loved his dog. His dog was his world. If he went out, you could hear the dog crying. He looked after his dog: if he didn’t have money he was always asking me for money to get it dog food, so it seems really strange.”

The dog was seized and is in secure kennels. Staffordshire bull terriers are not a banned breed under the Dangerous Dogs Act.

A postmortem examination carried out last Friday in Haringey gave the cause of death as hypovolemic shock – a condition caused by massive blood loss – and damage to the airway consistent with a dog bite.

The BBC said: “A crew making a BBC documentary were present – but not filming – at the time of the incident and called an ambulance. Given the ongoing inquiries, it would not be appropriate to comment further.”
[....]
Perivoitos’s death is not being treated as suspicious, and his next of kin have been informed. The family have lived in the home, which is owned by the council, since 1996.
 
they probably had cut a deal with the dog and he got a whole ham after the incident. Since it will add anyway all I can think of is whooosss da gud boy, yes he is

A DOG mauled its owner to death after eating crack cocaine, an inquest heard.

The Staffordshire Bull Terrier named Major was the equivalent of eight times the human drug drive limit when he latched onto Mario Perivoitos's face and neck — moments after his owner took part in a BBC documentary.

Mario Perivoitos was mauled by his drug-addled dog while he suffered an epileptic fit.

Mario, 41, had been filming with a camera crew for the BBC programme Drugs Map Britain when he fell into an epileptic fit and was attacked on his bed.

Nicholas Carmichael, an expert in veterinary toxicology, revealed that samples of cocaine and morphine had been discovered in Major's urine.

The exact reading and measurement of cocaine was not stated but Mr Carmichael said: "It is very likely that this dog had consumed drugs, probably eaten them.

"It is almost impossible to say whether that will make the dog attack but it does make them respond abnormally.

"They become very excited and agitated, it is highly more likely that this attack happened because this dog had taken cocaine.

"In my experience with Staffordshire Bull Terriers if they think they are in a dominant position its response must have been to attack."

"The dog had clearly taken it and, whether it had eaten it or taken it in by smoke, it is likely to have been a factor in the dog's behaviour."

Pathologist Dr Julie Higgins said: "The body included injuries to the neck and face with extensive haemorrhaging and the larynx was crushed."

He said: "The dog was taken to a secure police storage facility, it was due to be destroyed but I do not know if it has been."
 
I dont like it when my dogs are around when I'm getting high. I tell them that ... it sounds like this ... go away I'm smoking drugs ... they go away.
 
Dag, he eats crack ONE TIME and suddenly he's an addict :hilarious:
Thank goodness it was not PCP or the whole crew would have been taken out.

Yea, because pit bulls have never killed their owners when they went into seizures before without doing a line first. :rolleyes:
Well now we know we need to test them for drugs.
 
VIctim was likely a drug addict then. Good riddance.

What a tragedy the crew wasnt filming. Fucking lame.
