A woman has been left heartbroken after claims her puppy was ran over and killed by an electric scooter being driven by two boys along a popular walking route in Salford.
Susan Leigh, 63, had taken her nine-month-old Poodle, Rupert, along the Walkden to Little Hulton Loop Line when the pooch was allegedly knocked down by the vehicle. The pair had stopped at a bench near Walkden High School so Rupert could enjoy a quick drink, when out of nowhere Susan claims the scooter came speeding towards them.
Before she had a chance to react, Susan said the scooter's wheels went over the dog - leaving him motionless on the pathway. She claims the two youths glanced over, but didn't stop to help her on Wednesday.
