A ten-year-old boy was savagely mauled by a dog as he played outside his home in Walsall in the latest dog attack to hit the UK
In the shocking video, the boy is seen kicking a football outside his home before the leaps on him.
The dog clamps onto his arm for up to thirty seconds before two women rush to the child’s aid.
After trying to prise the animal’s jaw off the child, one of the adults waves down a taxi before others come over to rescue the boy.
The boy was taken to hospital where he was treated for a series of bite marks across his right arms while a woman, believed to be the owner, has been arrested and released with a caution. Local police said the dog is to be put down following the incident.
