A THREE-year-old girl has been rushed to hospital with “severe” injuries after a horror dog attack.
The tot was mauled in broad daylight at a park in West London on September 24.
Emergency services were called to to Rectory Fields, in Ealing, at 12.50pm.
Paramedics transported the youngster to hospital with “severe injuries to her leg”.
The owner of the dog fled the scene and no arrests have been made.
A Metropolitan Police spokesperson said: “Officers are investigating an alleged dog attack which occurred at around 12:50hrs on Wednesday, 24 September in Rectory Fields, Ealing.
“A three-year-old girl was taken to hospital by the London Ambulance Service where she received treatment for severe injuries to her leg.
“It is believed the owner of the dog left the scene before police arrived. No arrests have been made at this stage.”
Anyone who has information relating to the owner of the dog, or witnessed the incident, is asked to contact the Met via 101, quoting 01/8008839/25.
Last week we reported how an eight-year-old girl was left with facial scars after a viscous dog attack at a market in Kent.
The mutt, a large Belgian Malinois named Scooby, jumped at the little girl while she was visiting a market in Folkestone.
She suffered wounds to her cheek and abdomen, before screaming in fright and running to her father.
Folkestone magistrates heard that the dog attack left the girl “shaken, quiet and clingy.”
She will be left with permanent scars as a result of the assault.
Owner Mr Kadir fled the scene with his dog still on the lead after the girl was attacked.
But the child’s father followed him and tried to confront him.
As he approached, the hound turned bit the man, leaving him with puncture wounds on his arm.
The court ordered Scooby must be put down following the attacks, while his owner has been banned from keeping any dogs for five years.
Elsewhere, we reported last month how at least four armed cops rushed to a Leicester park after an alleged dog attack left children screaming.
Earlier this year, a one-year-old boy suffered injuries after he was bitten by a dog, as cops issued a CCTV image of a man they want to speak to.
The incident is thought have taken place at Arnos Court Park, in Brislington, in the south east area of Bristol, at around 5.45pm on July 29.
The child was taken to hospital for treatment for bruising and puncture wounds to the arm and he has since been discharged.
