Appeal | Woman injured in Handsworth dog attack
In the CCTV footage, the dangerous dog's owner can be seen trying to pull his aggressive animal off of the poodle for a prolonged period. Police are now hunting the owner of the dog, who fled the scene on a bike, and have released the footage and still images of a man they would like to speak to. Insp Leanne Chapman, from West Midlands Police's Dangerous Dog Unit, said: “The video makes shocking viewing, and you can see the sheer force that the victim is hit with."We believe the dog involved may be a bull breed, and it’s really important that we hear from anyone who knows the man in the images so that we can take steps to protect the public from harm in the future."Her dog suffered puncture wounds to her neck, and is now wary of other dogs, but is recovering well.
