Three dogs attacked a woman in her sixties on the Putney Vale estate on Wednesday night.

She was bitten on the head, arm and leg and was taken to Kingston Hospital.

The woman was walking her own dog on a lead in Stroud Crescent, Roehampton, around 7.15pm on Wednesday, January 9 when the animals attacked her. Two of them were bull terriers.

Police dog handlers were called to the scene. Police said this week they were aware of the owner of the dogs, and the person walking them at the time had also been reported for offences relating to the incident.

The victim has been released from hospital and is now said to be recovering.
