PSNI investigating assault on dog

Police in Londonderry are investigating an assault on a dog.

The PSNI received a report on Friday about a man standing on a dog’s head in the Carnhill area of Derry.

Chief Inspector Ferriby said: “It was reported that the dog was possibly a black pitbull-type breed, while the man is thought to have been in his mid to late fifties, of slim build and approximately 6ft tall. He was wearing a baseball hat and a tracksuit top.

“We would appeal to anyone who was in the area at the time and saw what happened, or who has any information which may assist with our enquiries – including images or any video footage – to contact us on the 101 number, quoting reference 1199 of 29/05/26.”
