Funeral for baby mauled by dogs

Hundreds of mourners paid their respects at the funeral

More than 100 family members and friends gathered for the funeral of a five-month-old baby who was savaged by two Rottweilers.

Cadey-Lee Deacon died after being mauled by the guard dogs at the Rocket pub in the New Parks area of Leicester on 23 September.

Her coffin was taken by a horse-drawn hearse to the service at Gilroes Crematorium, Leicester.

An inquest into Cadey-Lee's death was opened and adjourned on Monday.

It is believed a fire exit was mistakenly left open allowing the dogs to enter the pub's living quarters and attack the baby.

The two Rottweilers, which lived at the pub, were put down after the attack.
