Body of Lakeview Man Found, Partially Eaten by Dog

Autopsy results are inconclusive in the death of a Lakeview man who was partially eaten by his pet pit bull.

Matthew Lebold was found dead in his home this afternoon. Authorities suspect Lebold died a couple of days earlier, because his body was already decomposing and portions of his face, neck and chest were eaten through by the dog postmortem. Toxicology results to determine Lebold's death were pending.

We have to admit: when the late Chicagoist Office Manager was more spry, we feared this happening to us. We're getting chills right now just thinking about the possibility.
