The woman was found badly injured and in hypothermic and hemorrhagic shock Tuesday in the courtyard of the city’s sector 5 Public Domain Administration. The building is under conservation and no employees were there and the woman was reportedly attacked by a pack of stray dogs in the institution’s courtyard.

Doctors said she underwent three surgeries, including a skin transplant, but died Friday from the extensive injuries suffered.

The woman, Taniosa Sachievici, had been recently hired by a waste collecting firm based in Constanta which was going to open a working point in Bucharest. She was collecting a recyclable waste container from the sector 5 Public Domain Administration, said her employer.

Police have opened an investigation.
