A dog owner has been convicted of letting his pet chase and maul a deer in Richmond Park.
Police today released footage of the attack taken by a cyclist who formed a barrier with other passers-by to try to protect the animal, which had to be put down.
It shows Franck Hiribarne’s Red Setter rushing up to the sitting deer and appear to bite it, before retreating slightly and barking repeatedly in an aggressive manner.
Eyewitnesses, who rushed to the scene last October, described the dog, named Alfie, as “relentless” as it then attacked and bit the deer from behind.
