Man’s Twin Cockapoo Killed in Shocking London Road Attack
A man walking his two cockapoos along London Road faced a terrifying ordeal at around 10.45pm on Monday, 3 October 2022.
Threatening Armed Robbery on London Road
A grey Ford EcoSport sped past the man near 1 Hill, then returned on the wrong side of the road before stopping right beside him. The driver allegedly demanded the man hand over his mobile phone.
Two other men leapt out of the vehicle, armed with weapons. The victim bolted, but one of the dogs got caught on a lead.
Tragic Death of Beloved Cockapoo Milo
The dog ran onto a nearby pavement, barking fiercely, only to be struck by the Ford as it sped away towards the M25. The 11-month-old cockapoo, named Milo, died on the scene.
