Police have seized 17 dogs after a pack of canines mauled a six-year-old girl during a brutal attack on Sunday. Emergency services raced out to Ackers Lane in Carrington, Trafford at around 2.40pm after reports of an unconscious child who had suffered injuries during a dog attack.
Horrified neighbours are said to have seen another young girl and a man fighting with the dogs to get them off the little girl who was then picked up and taken away by a woman believed to be her mother. The victim is now understood to be in a stable condition in hospital, the M.E.N reports.
Officers seized four dogs and nine puppies on Sunday and have confirmed to have taken an additional four dogs today. Three people have been arrested on suspicion of owning a dangerous dog but have all been released on bail.
