Cancer patient assaulted by dogs in Parkland dies

SHELTON — The cancer patient who was mauled by puppies in his Parkland home last month has died in a Shelton nursing home.

SHELTON — The cancer patient who was mauled by puppies in his Parkland home last month has died in a Shelton nursing home.

Mason County Coroner Wes Stockwell says autopsy results are still pending for 55-year-old Michael Warner, who died on Friday. A toxicology report and tissue slide analysis will take another six to eight weeks.

Warner was dropped off at a hospital about a month ago. Doctors called the police who arrested his daughter and another women for investigation of criminal mistreatment. The two women have not been charged and both were released from the Pierce County jail.

Pierce County sheriff's spokesman Ed Troyer says it appears that more than 20 dogs were left in Warner's home and not fed. Troyer says some of the puppies used Warner as a food source.
