Man bitten by dog at Asda car park

Police are appealing for witnesses to an incident in Bury St Edmunds when a man was bitten by a dog.

It took place yesterday, Thursday,  March 9, at 11.05am, when the man, in his 60s, was walking from the B & M Store towards Asda car park on Western Way.

He had to step in behind a female who was walking a black Lucher type dog to avoid a car that was turning into the car park.

The dog then turned, jumped up towards the man’s face and bit him on the shoulder – no injuries were caused. The owner of the dog didn’t apologise and walked off.

Police are keen to speak to the dog owner who is described as a white female, thought to be aged in her 60s with shoulder length, grey hair and was wearing a black top and grey jogging bottoms.
