LOS ANGELES - A man who died in a dog attack at the home of actor Ving Rhames was identified Saturday as Jacob Adams, 40, of Los Angeles.

Adams had been living on Rhames’ Brentwood property for about two years as a caretaker for the actor’s dogs when he was attacked Friday morning, police said.

Adams might have been mauled to death, but he also might have died of heart failure during the attack, coroner’s officials said Friday.
Three bull mastiffs and an English bulldog were seized by animal services following the attack, police said.
Rhames, 46, an action star who appeared in the “Mission Impossible” series of films, was not home at the time of the attack.
