A pensioner was taken to hospital after being attacked by a “bulldog-type” dog in Dundee.
Police were called to Greendykes Road at around 2.10am on Sunday after the dog attacked the 72-year-old man and a 73-year-old woman while they were out walking.
The man was taken to Ninewells Hospital after sustaining injuries to his arm and face, while the woman did not require treatment.
The dog involved in the incident has been described as a bull-type breed, tan in colour and medium sized.
Enquiries remain ongoing to locate the owner of the dog and officers are appealing for any witnesses to come forward.
Sergeant Chris Hutchinson said: “We are keen to speak to anyone who was in the area at the time, or anyone who may have private CCTV or dashcam footage, as we try to identify the owner of the dog responsible.”
Anyone with information should call 101 and quote reference 1686 of Sunday, January, 26 2025.
