A newborn baby has died in tragic circumstances after a suspected dog attack on the NSW far south coast.

The five-week-old baby was brought to Moruya Hospital by the infant’s parents after suffering serious head injuries late Saturday night.

Two rottweiler-type dogs have since been seized by rangers from the family’s home.

Police were called to the hospital to investigate following the infant’s death shortly after midnight.

Moruya is a small town in the Eurobodalla region, around 300km south of Sydney.

A police investigation is ongoing.

More to come.
