A man's been given a two-year suspended sentence after an 11 year-old girl was bitten by an XL bully in Birmingham.

Two men were also injured - as they tried to intervene - after the dog broke free from its collar.

Farhat Ajaz, of Bordesley Close, had plead guilty to three counts of owning a dog which caused injury while dangerously out of control.
