BREAKING: Police investigate owner of Pitbull for manslaughter after it kills 67-year-old grandmother
The owner of a stray dog which killed an animal-loving gran is being investigated on suspicion of manslaughter. Anne Shields, 67, took in the Pitbull called Choccy to live at her holiday home as it was starving.
Today police investigators said in their first official comments that the dog’s owner had been identified despite it having no microchip. They also confirmed he had been banned from owning pit bulls and other dogs classified as “potentially dangerous” in Spain because of previous offences. “The victim had found the animal in an acute state of malnutrition and showing clear signs of abandonment, with illnesses like canine scabies, four days before it ended her life. She was warned by the vet that saw the animal that it was dangerous and she shouldn’t take it in but she ignored the warnings.
“Officers also discovered he had owned dogs of similar characteristics without the necessary safeguards and care. Detectives carried out an investigation of his home and observed the places where the dog could have escaped, as the suspect himself recognised in his statement.
