A young woman tells Eyewitness News she and the victim were visiting the dog's owner, who was apparently looking for a good home for the dog. The dog jumped up on the woman and the victim lunged at the dog. That's when the dog attacked the man.
The animal bit the man's throat, puncturing his jugular. He died in the front yard of the home he was visiting.
The dog's ownership is a little unclear. Neighbors say the men who lived in the home had pit bulls, but they never had any problems in the past.
An officer called to the scene stunned the agitated dog with his Taser. The dog was taken into custody by animal control officers.
A man living in the home was questioned by authorities and released. It's unknown what charges may be filed, if any. The victim's identity has not been released.
