...and put the owner in jail. Or vice versa, I'm sure the NHS will assist...
A dog owner will appear in court next week after her Staffie attacked a number of dogs at Withy Grove Park in Bamber Bridge. Kimberley Bond, 51, of Grove Street, Bamber Bridge, was arrested in July and charged with being in charge of ‘a dog dangerously out of control’.
And of course, instead of ending the wothless mutt then and there, it was seized alive to soak up taxpayer cash until the trial, as if it were a vital piece of evidence....
The silver female Staffie was seized by Lancashire Police and remains in kennels pending the outcome of its owner’s court case.
And as usual in these cases, the owner had been given a chance to retain her mauler, and didn't:
The 51-year-old is further charged with failing to comply with a community protection notice in relation to the dog.
Prior to her arrest, Bond was told she must comply with a number of conditions, including ensuring that her back garden was secure, that the dog was only walked by an adult and that it remained on a 1m lead at all times, whilst wearing a Baskerville muzzle. But according to local reports, the dog continued to escape and menace other dogs in Withy Grove Park - the largest green space in Bamber Bridge and a popular children’s play area.
And so it goes on and on...
