Yuen Long dog attack leaves man injured

A man was injured in a dog attack in Yuen Long and was sent to Pok Oi Hospital for treatment.

The incident happened at around 8am.

A 26-year-old man reported that when he walked past the Cheung Hing Logistics warehouse on Pok Wai Road.

Three dogs rushed out and a six-year-old female dog bit his left leg.

He was sent to the hospital with minor injuries.

The Agriculture, Fisheries and Conservation Department later took the dog away for an examination.

Following a suspected fatal dog attack on Pok Wai South Road and Kam Pok Road in Yuen Long last month, AFCD officers spent several days catching unattended dogs in the area.

Under current laws, owners are only required to leash and control their dogs in public places.
