REST IN PEACE: 37-Year-Old Mother Dies After Reported Dog Attack in Paarl East 

A family in Paarl East is mourning the heartbreaking loss of 37-year-old Edith Smith, a devoted mother of two, who died after she was reportedly attacked by several dogs in the New Orleans area during the early hours of Sunday morning.

According to police, the incident happened at around 4:30am. Edith sustained multiple severe dog bite injuries and was rushed to hospital for emergency medical treatment. Despite the efforts of healthcare workers, she sadly later succumbed to her injuries.

It is understood that Edith and her boyfriend had accompanied friends part of the way home before deciding to head back. According to her uncle, Edith chose to walk to a nearby garage to buy a voucher and was walking a short distance ahead of her boyfriend when the tragic incident occurred.

Police say she was attacked by several dogs, while some reports allege that as many as five dogs were involved. Authorities have since opened a culpable homicide investigation as they work to establish the full circumstances surrounding the incident.

Edith's passing has left her family and the local community devastated. She leaves behind two children, Raynique and Mejaun, who must now face life without their mother.

In an emotional tribute shared on social media, Edith's brother, Junaid Smith, described her as his protector, confidante, and best friend. He expressed the deep pain of losing his sister and vowed to be there for her children, promising to help raise and support them in her absence.
