After the scratch, Henry Roque said in the interview, he washed the wound but didn’t take Ryker to the hospital because the boy cried when he was told he would need shots.

Lake County deputies responded to the Eustis home about two weeks ago after they were told the family’s pit bull may have had rabies. When they arrived, somebody told them the residents were at the hospital with their son, who had been scratched by a bat, sheriff’s Maj. Chris Delibro said.

A child died. A pit bull was involved. The pit bull wasn't the culprit. Who saw that coming?

In Florida’s defense, most of the gems in the state are transplants from the Midwest.

In all seriousness, what a terrible story. Poor kid deserved better.

Back in my day we'd hit each other with bats all the time and none of us got sick

Terrible. I worked with a guy that lost his 17 year old son to a bat bite about 10 yrs ago in the Houston area. So sad.

Poor little guy. Goddam.
I couldn’t live with myself if I made a mistake like that directly resulting in the death of my child.
I’d have washed a bottled of ambien down with a fifth, started the car in the garage, and taken a forever nap well before I could’ve been interviewed by the local news.

Even more amazing, cops made an appearance and no dogs were shot.
It must be Opposite Day.

But I'm assuming the dog was put down after being taken into custody in order to test for rabies.

Deputies didn’t see the bat, but they took the pit bull and a cat to the Sheriff’s Office’s animal shelter for testing. Delibro did not know the results of the tests.
