A man was left needing hospital treatment after being attacked by a dog as he walked down the street. Keith Richards was attacked by a Pit Bull as he walked his Border Terrier.
The 44-year-old told ChronicleLive he suffered bites on his arm, shoulder blade, collarbone and to the right side of his body in a 10-minute attack. Keith has also been left unable to work as a window cleaner while his injuries heal. He may need plastic surgery.
Keith said: "I saw a lass holding on for dear life to a pit bull. It got out of her hands and had no muzzle on. I threw my dog onto the top of the car and then the pit bull went absolutely beserk and began ripping me to pieces.
