Police Appeal After Dog Concerns in Scarborough

Monday, 12 August 2024 10:24

Police are asking for more details about an animal welfare concern in Scarborough.

It happened at around 8pm on Friday, near St Nicholas Gardens, on Foreshore Road and involved reports of a dog being mistreated.

The pet is described as a large, underweight brown bulldog-type dog.

It has since been checked over by a vet and is being suitably cared for.

A 54-year-old man has been arrested in connection with the report and has been released under investigation while enquiries continue.

Officers are particularly appealing for information from anyone who witnessed any concerning behaviour by a man towards his dog, especially those who spoke to the police on the night but did not give their details.

Please email Rowan.Haywood@northyorkshire.police.uk if you have any information that could help the investigation.

Alternatively, you can call North Yorkshire Police on 101, select option 2, and ask for Rowan Haywood, or contact Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111 or via their website.

Please quote reference 12240143848 when passing on information.
