Wiltshire Police is hunting a driver who mowed down and killed a dog in Devizes.

A 4×4 vehicle towing a trailer mounted the pavement near Prison Bridge on Bath Road at around 10.20am on Sunday 6 November.

During the manoeuvre, the pet – which was on a lead and with its owner – was struck. It was rushed to the vet for treatment but died shortly afterwards.

The driver of the vehicle stopped at the scene but failed to provide their details.

A spokesperson for the force said: “We respect that some time has passed, during which we have been investigating the incident.

“We believe a motorcyclist stopped to help the dog’s owner, and we would particularly like to speak to them.

“If you saw what happened or can help with our enquiries, please contact us on 101 quoting reference number 54220117124.”
