Man eaten by his own dogs

A reclusive American was eaten by his own pet dogs, authorities have revealed.

Relatives of Freddie Mack, 57, from Venus, Texas, had not seen him since April because his 18 medium and large dogs of mixed breeds prevented them from searching his property.

Police visited Mack’s home and found a small piece of bone after earlier searches — including one involving a drone — did not turn up any sign of Mack, who lived alone, according to Johnson County Sheriff Adam King.

Deputies then found more bone fragments and other pieces of evidence during subsequent searches, including animal feces containing suspected human hair and clothing that matched the only set of clothing Mack was known to wear.

“As far as we could tell, he only had human contact twice a month when his relatives would pick him up and take him to the store,” King told The Post on Wednesday. “He pretty much lived in a compound surrounded by mean dogs.”
