Rebecca Hardy died from multiple injuries after she was attacked by two dogs.
A 22-year-old mother killed herself by climbing into a yard where she knew two dangerous dogs resided, authorities told BuzzFeed News.
According to police, Hardy allegedly climbed into the backyard of a home where the two dogs were. One dog was a pitbull, and the other was a pitbull-husky mix.
The pitbull attacked Hardy in the face and neck, while the other dog attacked her on "the lower part of her body," police said.
A witness saw the attack and tried to help but couldn't, police said. The witness went inside the home and grabbed the dogs' owner, who was able to free Hardy.
She was taken to a hospital, where she died from her injuries.
After an investigation, the Oakland County Medical Examiner's office said it determined that Hardy's death was a suicide.
"She subjected herself to the situation of mauling by the dogs," he said.
Dragovic said that his office learned that Hardy had gotten into an argument at her home, and had left the house barefoot.
She then traveled about a mile to where she knew the dogs were, knowing they were aggressive, Dragovic said.
"The fact is that she made a purposeful act by climbing the fence," he said.
Dragovic said that Hardy had also attempted suicide in the past.
