Woman bitten by dog 'saw blood everywhere' after dropping leaflet into letterbox

A woman who was bitten by a dog needed emergency surgery after going out leaflet dropping in her local area. Sharon Connor was shocked as she retrieved her hand from a letterbox to find it covered in blood.

The woman, who was rushed to a local hospital to have plastic surgery done on her injuries, was campaigning for local election when she dropped a leaflet through a letterbox and her hand was bitten by a dog, reports the Liverpool Echo.

The stunned Labour candidate for the Garston ward in Liverpool almost lost the tip of her finger from the animal's attack before rushing to a local pub to be treated before walking in to a centre in the area.
