Leigh dog attack: Woman arrested and 15 dogs seized after Jonathan Hogg, 37, mauled to death

A woman has been arrested on suspicion of money laundering in connection with a fatal dog attack on a dad-of-five. Jonathan Hogg, 37, was mauled to death by what was believed to be an XL bully type dog at a house in Leigh on Thursday night.

The dog was later shot dead by armed police. Today (Saturday) police said a 22-year-old female had been arrested on suspicion of money laundering.

It follows the arrest of a 24-year-old man on suspicion of being in charge of a dangerously out of control dog causing injury resulting in death. Both suspects have been bailed pending further enquiries.
