BEAST WAS 'DANGEROUSLY' OUT OF CONTROL, BUT MUM ESCAPES PUNISHMENT

- By JADE MCELWEE

A MUM-of-two has been hauled before the courts for her "out of control" danger dog.

Monika Piroskova admitted being the owner of bulldog Kiki when she bit a police officer on Christmas Day, last year. Teesside Magistrates' Court heard that it was the 33-year-old's partner who reportedly shouted for the "large black bulldog" as he was being arrested at the Egerton Street home.

Piroskova and her partner Alan Zahor were both charged with being in charge of the four-year-old dog when she was "dangerously out of control" biting a police officer.

Prosecutor Lillian Yanes Hellevik outlined that the dog is co-owned by Piroskova and her co-accused partner.
