A woman has suffered potentially life-changing injuries in a dog attack. The emergency services were called to a house in Boughton Avenue in Worcester at 9.10am on Wednesday after receiving reports that people inside had been injured by a dog, West Mercia Police said.
The dog was already dead when police arrived at the scene and officers carried out first aid on the injured people until West Midlands Ambulance Service (WMAS) arrived. A 68-year-old woman was taken to Queen Elizabeth Hospital in Birmingham with injuries that were initially considered life-threatening, but police now say are "potentially life-changing". A 38-year-old man has been taken to Worcestershire Royal Hospital with injuries which were not thought to be life-threatening.
In a statement, WMAS said it was called at 9.11am and sent two ambulances, two paramedic officers and the Midlands Air Ambulance to assist.
