UPDATED: MUCH LOVED BEAGLE CHESTER IS MAULED TO DEATH BY A MANS OUT OF CONTROL DOGS

Updated 09:40 23/11: We are being told no arrests have been made but enquiries are on going, a man has come forward and the two dogs have been seized under the dangerous dogs act (1991).

The man who we can not not yet be identified for legal reasons is alleged to have allowed his two dogs to attack and kill another on the school fields behind St Patrick's High School in Winton at around 2.00pm this afternoon. 

Both dogs (neither of which are wearing collars) can be clearly seen in the photos attacking the family pet, a much loved Beagle called Chester.

The white dog has what appears to be blood around its mouth as the brown dog continues its frenzied attack.

It is said that the man quickly left the scene after he had rounded up the two dogs and left distraught dog walker Janet with Chester lying dead at her feet.

Police apparently attended the scene but by the time they had got there he had fled and was long gone.

The sickening images (Uncensored) have been widely circulated around social media sites, with the original post being shared over eight and a half thousand times on Facebook.

As a result of the exposure it has been said that the man has now handed himself into the police.

We have asked GMP for a statement and also if any charges are to be brought against him, we will post an update as soon as we know more.
