Police have released an e-fit image of a man who kicked a teenager’s dog in the town last month.
The incident occurred at around 3pm on Thursday, June 24 when the 16- year-old and her pet were walking through Russell Howard Park in South Ham. The man’s dog bit hers on the lip before the man kicked it in the head and knocked it over. He then threatened the girl before walking off.
PC Lee Stanbrook, from the Basingstoke South Safer Neighbourhoods team, said: “The girl was left extremely shaken by what happened and I would like to hear from anyone who recognises the man in the e-fit. The teenager says another man came over to help her. Are you this person? If so, get in touch.”
Anyone with information is asked to contact PC Stanbrook at Basingstoke police station on 101 or call the Crimestoppers charity anonymously on 0808 555 111.
