A 55-year-old woman who was out walking her dogs was bitten in the face and arm by a larger loose dog in Olofström municipality in Blekinge.

– She must have managed well and has no need for emergency medical care. But two of her dogs have been injured and have been taken to an animal hospital, says police spokesperson Jimmy Modin.

The owner of the large dog later arrived at the scene and captured his dog.

– The classification of the crime is initially a violation of the law on the supervision of dogs and cats and causing bodily harm.

The alarm was received by the police at 12.25 on Saturday.
