SIMPSON COUNTY, MS -- A 3-year-old girl attacked by a pack of pit bulls was victimized yet again when her family was allegedly asked to leave a Mississippi KFC restaurant because her face was disturbing customers.

Victoria Wilcher lost her right eye and suffered a broken jaw and ribs following the mauling in April.

Restricted to eating only soft foods, Victoria's grandmother took her to KFC for some mashed potatoes. The grandmother says she was shocked by the employee's request.

KFC has since apologized to the Wilcher family and say they will take appropriate action.
