Two bailed following dog attack that killed 19 year old in Bristol
Investigations continue.
Two people arrested in connection to a 19-year-old woman who died in a dog attack in Bristol on Wednesday, have been released on conditional bail while investigations continue.
At 7.19pm on Wednesday (26th February), police received a report from the ambulance service of the incident, which took place inside a flat in Cobhorn Drive in the Withywood area of the city.
Officers attended alongside the ambulance service but despite their efforts, the 19-year-old victim died at the scene.
Two people, a man and a woman both aged in their 20s, were initially arrested on suspicion of being in charge of a dog dangerously out of control causing injury resulting in death and possession of a prohibited breed of dog.
The dog was sedated and seized, and has been put down.
Initial reports suggested it may be an XL Bully, but confirming the breed will form part of the assessment process.
