VOLUSIA COUNTY, Fla. — A Volusia County school is honoring a young boy who died following a dog attack earlier this year.
8-year-old Michael Millett died in January after two dogs attacked him in his neighborhood north of DeLand.
McInnis Elementary School in DeLeon Springs recently unveiled “Michael’s Buddy Bench,” in Millett’s memory.
Michael’s parents supported a state bill to increase oversight of dangerous dogs.
It was signed by Gov. Ron DeSantis on May 21.
