POLICE are looking to identify a woman after a child was reportedly bitten by a dog in Wincanton last year.

A child was playing in the Wincanton Recreation Ground, in Cemetery Lane at around 2.50pm on Wednesday, August 7 last year, when he ran past another child and a woman, police said.

“A dog, described as a German pointer-type, reportedly lunged at the running child and bit them, causing minor injuries that required hospital treatment,” an Avon and Somerset Police spokesperson said.
