United Kingdom: Aggressive dogs running loose force closure of children's park

UNITED KINGDOM -- Officers were called to the park off Othello Road in Low Hill in Wolverhampton on Wednesday afternoon at 3.10pm.

They put a perimeter around the animals before a specialist dogs unit arrived at 4.55pm.

A spokesman said: "The two dogs have been seized and enquiries are on-going to trace the owners."

Low Hill police unit tweeted: "An irresponsible dog owner thought it’d be a good idea to abandon two aggressive dogs off their leads in a children’s park in Othello Road this afternoon.

Did someone actually see someone abandon them or did they simply show up, running loose?

"Our quick thinking PCSOs secured the perimeter until help could arrive from West Midlands Police Dog Unit to safely detain the dogs."
