A tragic accident
Matt Bullivant of the local police commented on the death on Tuesday.
– This is an incredibly tragic incident where we believe a child was killed after being attacked by a dog, he says.
“We are clearly in the early stages of the investigation and it would be wrong and unhelpful to speculate on the exact circumstances surrounding this incident at this time,” Bullifant continues.
Double gang murder
It remains unclear what exactly happened in the time before the girl’s death was announced, and the police officer is now making an appeal to the local community:
– Anyone with concerns should feel free to approach our officers and ask questions, but I encourage people not to speculate on circumstances, especially on social media platforms, he says.
Bullifant added, “I understand the impact this has on the community, and people can expect to see a significant police presence in the area this evening and beyond as our investigation continues.”
