Three people injured in dog attack after woman suffered possibly life-altering injuries

Three individuals have been hurt after a dog attack in Worcester.

A 68-year-old woman was transported to hospital with life-changing injuries according to authorities.

Today at 9:11 a.m., emergency services were called to a private address off Bransford Road.

Two ambulances, two paramedic officers and the Midlands Air Ambulance from Strensham were deployed to the location.

A West Midlands Ambulance Service spokesman said: ‘On arrival, crews discovered three patients; two men and a woman.

‘The woman was treated by ambulance crews and medics for serious injuries before being conveyed via land ambulance to University Hospital Birmingham for further treatment.

‘The Midlands Air Ambulance medics traveled on board to provide continued treatment en route.

‘One of the men was treated for serious injuries before being taken to Worcester Royal Hospital by land ambulance.

‘The second man was treated for injuries not believed to be serious but did not wish to go to hospital and so was given self-care advice before being discharged at the scene.’

A police spokesperson said: ‘We are currently on scene at a house on Boughton Avenue in Worcester following a report of injuries to the occupants caused by a dog at the premises.

‘Officers were called to the scene at 9.10am and carried out first aid on two people until paramedics arrived.

‘A 68-year-old woman has been taken to Queen Elizabeth Hospital in Birmingham with life-threatening injuries. A 38-year-old man has been taken to Worcestershire Royal Hospital with injuries which are not life-threatening.

‘The dog was dead when officers arrived, and we can confirm there is no further risk to members of public.’
