Two heroic Nottingham City Homes workers rushed to save a woman who was attacked by a dog in Sneinton. Rob Frost and Colin Swallow claimed they were both bitten on their stomach whilst wrestling with the suspected Staffy Bull Bullmastiff.
The pair were working at a property near the attack in Newark Crescent at around 3.30pm on Tuesday, August 30. Police described the workers as "heroic" and said the dog had been placed in a secure kennelling facility.
Recalling the incident, Mr Frost said he was "absolutely terrified". “I was just sitting in my van ready to go home and I heard this shouting behind me on a bit of grass. I didn’t think anything of it and then the shouting turned to screaming and I saw a dog hanging off the lady’s arm," he told Nottinghamshire Live.
