A man who was mauled to death by XL bully dogs near a primary school has been named as Ian Price.
Mr Price, aged 52, was attacked in Main Street, Stonnall, at around 3.15pm on Thursday, and died in hospital that evening.
At the time, police prevented a number of children leaving nearby primary school, St Peter’s Primary Academy.
The two dogs involved were believed to be XL bullies but further tests are being carried out to determine their breed, Staffordshire Police said on Friday.
One of the dogs died after being restrained and the other died after an injection was given by a vet, the force said.
A 30-year-old man, from the Lichfield area, has been arrested on suspicion of having dogs dangerously out of control.
