Mauled baby's grandfather stabbed
Forensic police officers at the scene of the stabbing
The little girl was girl by two rottweilers on the roof of a pub
The grandfather of a baby mauled to death by Rottweilers has been stabbed and his partner killed in a separate attack hours later, a family member says.
John Brightwell, 50, and Debra Larn, 47, were attacked at their home in Beaumont Leys, Leicester, Leicestershire, early on Sunday, said his niece, 17-year-old Natalie Brightwell.
At around 4pm on Saturday, Mr Brightwell's five-month-old granddaughter Caydee-Lee was savaged by guard dogs at The Rocket pub in the New Parks area of the city. The girl suffered horrific injuries and was taken to hospital, but died a short time later.
Two people were arrested following the stabbings, which were linked to Caydee-Lee's death, Sky News reported.
The dog attack happened in the living quarters of The Rocket pub in Stephenson Drive. The dogs, which were trained to act as guard dogs, were later put down.

It is thought the little girl's parents were looking after the pub - and the animals - when the attack happened.
Neighbours named the landlords as Wayne and Lesley Glaze, and said they left the pub with Mrs Glaze's son, Lee Burchell, and his girlfriend Amy while they went on holiday.
Police have not named the baby, but neighbours said she was Caydee-Lee, the young couple's daughter. Reports said the dogs, Bess and Bruno, were owned by Mr and Mrs Glaze.
The attack was reportedly witnessed by horrified passers-by, who alerted the emergency services.
Emotional neighbours spoke of their horror at the baby's death, describing the animals as "vicious".
One woman, who would not be named, said: "They went for her face, completely ripped her apart. It doesn't bear thinking about. Apparently they dragged her on to the roof."
