A woman and her dog have been injured in an attempted theft in Belmont

At around 6.30pm on the 28th of September, a 41-year-old woman was walking the Boxer/staff when she was approached by a man. 

He demanded she give him the dog, and she was injured when she refused, then the dog bit him several times on the leg. 

No trace of him can be found on CCTV, but blood samples have been taken from the dog’s mouth to try and identify him. 

PC Heath Keogh has called the dog “courageous”.
