"That could have caused some kind of jealousy and led the dog to attack the children," the family member said.
A nurse who lived nearby has tried to save the children by giving first aid, but one of them died instantly while the other twin died at Maria Pedreira Barbosa Municipal Hospital after suffering a cardiac arrest.
Looking at the tragic incident, the mother was reportedly collapsed which needs her to be brought to the nearest hospital. Maria de Jesus, a neighbor, said: "This has devastated the parents. I pray that they don’t fall into a depression but it will be difficult because the children were beautiful, really loved, and desperately wanted," reports quoted on FocusOn News by The Sun.
