North Yorkshire Police has appealed for witnesses after a dog attacked a child outside a school in Knaresborough.

In a statement this afternoon, the force said the dog was tied to a fence outside the front gate of St Mary’s Catholic Primary School on Tentergate Road when it bit the child.

The incident happened on Wednesday, March 13 at school pick-up time.

The child required hospital treatment for what police described as "minor injuries".

The statement said:

"Dog owners are urged take responsibility for their pets. Please do not leave dogs tied up and unattended around school premises near where young children may be playing."




Anyone who saw the incident or knows the dog owner is urged to contact North Yorkshire Police by calling 101, or emailing  jack.bocking@northyorkshire.police.uk, quoting reference 12240045161.
