 We have some great news... Brighton Dogwatch: Update - found. Message from Pip's humans "Pip is back with us, she was found by two amazing nurses in the grounds of the hospital in Burgess Hill. Apart from a cut paw she is fine just a little subdued. Thank you to everyone involved. The outcome has restored my confidence in people. X x" Sussex Police: Pip, a greyhound-Great Dane crossbreed, was taken by three unknown men and put into a black Volvo 4x4 which then made off from the scene.
The victim, a local man in his 30s, had been parked in a layby in Falmer Road, between the Amex stadium and Woodingdean, when the incident occurred around 5.20pm on Wednesday (10 October). Following enquiries, police located the vehicle in Crawley on Thursday (11 October) and the driver was arrested. A 23-year-old man from Horley in Surrey, arrested on suspicion of robbery and possession of an offensive weapon (a knife) in a public place, has been released under investigation pending further enquiries. Pip is now safe and has since been reunited with her owners, having been located by a member of the public in Burgess Hill on Thursday (11 October). Anyone with any information about the incident is urged to report it online or call 101, quoting serial 875 of 10/10. You can also contact the independent charity Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111 or report it online. |
